People to the left of me, people to the right
 I wanna be alone
 But it just gets worse all the time
 Can't make it work


 People all around me in love and pain
 Some are integrated, drivin' me insane
 They're gonna drive me right out of my head


 Scheming, there's people cheatin'
 Pressure from all sides
 Chain you, they'll try to change you
 There's no escaping people


 People, people


 People


 Standing right in front of me, movin' up behind
 Ringin' on my phone
 I got no place to hide
 Nowhere to go


 People all around me singing out of tune
 Draw me, [Incomprehensible]
 Oh, leave me alone
 I gotta find somewhere else I can go


 Once I wanted loving, somebody of my own
 That's all changed
 Love somebody of my own
 That's all changed


 People all around me, in love and pain
 Some are integrated, drivin' me insane
 They're gonna drive me right out of my head


 People, people, people
 People, people, people
