And I can act like I don’t see
Just who I want to be
But only for so long
And you, you can guess that I would know
Just where I want to go
And I guess that you’d be wrong
Why kill myself to find out who I am
When I really only want to be you
Don’t really see the harm
In lending me your charm
It seemed to make you smile
And I could see how I could lose
Without the things you do
Not even for a while
Why kill myself to find out who I am
When I really only want to be you
Why kill myself to find who I am
When I really only want to be you
Just who I want to be
But only for so long
And you, you can guess that I would know
Just where I want to go
And I guess that you’d be wrong
Why kill myself to find out who I am
When I really only want to be you
Don’t really see the harm
In lending me your charm
It seemed to make you smile
And I could see how I could lose
Without the things you do
Not even for a while
Why kill myself to find out who I am
When I really only want to be you
Why kill myself to find who I am
When I really only want to be you

Wow.
Simple really, He just wants to be like someone else, the title backs this up. A "tag-along" is someone who doesn't really fit in with a group but follows them around, usually because they want to be like those people.
