i'm common in the way i
walk, talk, and breathe
i nail my heart to my sleeve
and i'm common in the way i
look at all your friends
want to reach new ends
parade a pack of lies
want to get
and i'm common in the way i'm
bored into laughter
yeah i'm common in the way my
heart's beating faster

but i'm coming up for air
i'm diving for pennies in the fountains at the mall
and the vantage we will share
we're conquering mole hills but from mountains we will fall
and there's something not in the air
twelve years spoon fed religion

i'm common anyway iam
i'm common anyway iam
i'm common anyway iam
yeah i'm common anyway a man can be

but i'm coming up for air
i'm diving for pennies in the fountains at the mall
and the vantage we will share
we're conquering mole hills but from mountains we will fall
and there's something not in the air
twelve years spoon fed religion

what's in the way it's making you fell
'cause any way i look at it
we are not victims of this time
what's in the way it's making you feel
'cause any way i look at it
we are not victims of this time
