Lyrics for Don't Wanna Be The One

I'm an innocent victim, I'm just like you We end up in home units with a brick wall view I can't believe the perfect families on my colour TV If I don't make it to the top it'll never bother me And I don't wanna be the one And I don't wanna be the one I'm an innocent bystander caught in the path Waiting out the back while the corporate attack Assaults the senses with relentless scenes of passion and delight I cut up all the options and went running for my life
