Alarm sounds, eyes open, another day begins,
Your routine life awaits you
I'm only getting older, I'm only getting older.

Chorus
I've spent too long trying to please everyone
It's time I got selfish and did something
Don't need your opinions, can't hear your objections
Like it or not, this is who I am

Go to work and pretend I'm someone that I'm not
Just turn and nod, do what they say
You said I could be anything I want if I give it all I have
Well this is my life and these are my dreams

Chorus x2
