I live vicariously

I live vicariously

through everyone I know

I look at how they're living

how they come and how they go

and I pretend I'm like them

or maybe somebody else

my biggest potential nightmare

is for me to be myself

I live vicariously

through what normal people do

all those nights out having fun

I want to do it, too

I want to travel near and far

to unknown foreign lands

I may not be as good as them

but I do the best I can

I live vicariously

through all those celebrities

you see in Hollywood movies

and watch on your TV

I want to change identity

myself blissfully forgot

I want to live my best life

as someone who I'm not

I live vicariously

most of all through you

you are the person

that I look up to

I would like to be someone

you will work out well

my biggest potential nightmare

is for me to be myself
