i wake up every morning

jumping at whistles come rain or shine

my spirit, it goes through the motions

they need a number to identify



when i look out on the horizon

i see far beyond this place called home

every time i try to explain it

i end up feeling so alone



you don't want to walk in my shoes

beneath all this envy green

i'm varsity blue

varsity blue...



i try to shake my daily routine

i gotta escape from their watchful eyes

'cause i'm not sure if this is about me

or if they're reliving glory days gone by



you don't want to walk in my shoes

beneath all this envy green

i'm varsity blue

varsity blue...



if i let your games ruin our relation

we build the foundation of the

pedestal they put us on

and if you can, try to understand me

because sooner or later this will all be gone



you don't want to walk in my shoes

beneath all this envy green

i'm varsity blue

varsity blue...
