We tried to be different
We tried to pretend
We tried to be all things
We tried to be friends

But nothing's that easy
I wish it was then
But we don't exist now
And we wont again

And we fought with the system
And it went to our heads
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
But we don't exist now
And we won't again, we won't again

And we fought with the system
And it went to our heads
We tried to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead
We're beggars instead

And we fought with a mission
Forgot what we said
And we try 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 a mission
Forgot what we said
And we try to be Romans
Now we're beggars instead
We're beggars instead

We tried to be different
We tried to pretend
