We tried to be different
We tried to pretend
We tried to be all things
We tried to be friends
Nothing's that easy
I wish it was then
We don't exist now
And we won't again
And we fought with the system
And it went to our heads
And we tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead, we're beggars instead
I know there's a meaning
And I know there's a when
But I can't help leaning
On the other side of my head (On the other side of my head)
And nothing's that easy
I wish it was then
We don't exist now
We won't again, we won't again
And we fought with the system
And it went to our heads
And we tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead, we're beggars instead
And we fought with the mission
Forgot what we said
We tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead, we're beggars instead
And we fought with the system
And it went to our heads
We tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead
Oh, and we fought with the mission
Forgot what we said
And we tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead, we're beggars instead
Tried to be different
Tried to pretend
