I find myself

I'm just awastin' ny time away

No matter what I do

It always ends up the same

One minute moves

Into the next

My life was simple

But now its complex

And it doesn't seem to mean anything at all



And everything I want to be

Is just another silly dream, you see

But I'll keep dreaming just the same



Sometimes it's hard to be me

When people stand in my way

I get so easily discouraged

Well, what can I say

They try to mess you up

They try to push you around

They'll do anything

To bring you down



I'm not gonna be

Stuck in mediocrity

When everybody's trying to bring me

Back down to reality

Oh, why can't they see

Just how much this means to me

Maybe one day I'll be special



Your dreams special to you

But maybe others don't care

It brings you down

When you find them disregarded

And when you're out on your own

It's hard to make yourself stay

And finish up what it was

That you once started



I'm not gonna be

Taken down that easily

When everybody's trying to tell me

What I'm gonna have to be

Oh, why can't they see

Just how much this means to me

Maybe one day I'll be special

I'll be special



It means nothing

It means everything

It means something to me



What you tryin' to say

I'm not gonna play

In this little game

That you have created for me

You had your chance to do

What you needed to

And now it's time for me

To step right up and

Spin that wheel

This times for real



It's not gonna work this time

Cause in the end it's gonna to be mine

There's no need for me to stay

Cause everything is gonna go

My way

My way, my way

My way

My way, my way, my way
