Universal

Tried my best to avoid a normal life
But we all conform to some degree
Loneliness cuts like the sharpest knife
And I, for one, don't want to bleed

So, I'll stop and smell the flowers
Drive around for a couple hours
Sing along to the radio like I'm in a commercial
And I'll feel the wind on my skin
As I look past the horizon
Try to have an experience that's universal

'Cause I'm just like you
I'm just like you
I'm unhappy too
I'm just like you

Why can't anything just be enough?
Or is wanting more the American dream?
If it is, I'd like to give it all up
But I, for one, don't want to bleed

So I'll stop and smell the flowers
Drive around for a couple hours
Sing along to the radio like I'm in a commercial
And I'll feel the wind on my skin
As I look past the horizon
Try to have an experience that's universal

'Cause I'm just like you
I'm just like you
I'm unhappy too
I'm just like you

I'm just like you
I'm just like you
I'm just like you
I'm just like you

So I'll stop and smell the flowers
Play my guitar for a couple hours
Write some shitty songs that no one'll ever hear
