average joe Lyrics

I walk alone in a world full of shadows

My heart beats fast in the dark unknown

And I've always been told they prefer sopranos

They're throwing me out like I'm your average Joe

Instead of taking the time to know me

They could have taken the time to know me

Instead of taking the time to diss me

They'll miss me, now I know

They could have taken the time to ask my name

Now all I feel is shame (The whole way home)

But if that was my last straw

And I just gave up on it all

What kind of mess would I be?

And I'd do just as they said

But I'm still stuck in my head

I'm still stuck in my head

I never know just how to plan my day

I'm picking up the slack just to have an easy A

I'm doing all their work just to find a friend to stay

And like me in a way

I never knew when I could be myself

I found a group of friends and they really seemed to help

I'm not doing all their work and I think they like me well

It's like they brought me back from hell

Thanks for taking the time to know me

But if that was my last straw

And I just gave up on it all

What kind of mess would I be? (Thanks for taking the time to know me)

And I'd do just as they said

But I'm still stuck in my head

I'm still stuck in my head (Thanks for taking the time to know me)

Thanks for taking the time to know me

Instead of taking the time to diss me

They'll miss me, now I know

They could have taken the time to ask my name

Now all I feel is shame the whole way home

But if that was my last straw

And I just gave up on it all

What kind of mess would I be?

And I'd do just as they said

But I'm still stuck in my head

I'm still stuck in my head
