Too many times I am reminded what I sow I reap

Thanks for the tip but my own counsel will I keep

It's such a shame you only see as far as hope is high

If only you could see what I've seen with your eyes



Choke down that advice reflex

And we'll all get by just fine

Tuck back the pearls of wisdom

Or you'll feel a piece of my mind



Who are you to tell me what is right?

You listen close

It's my fucking life

I'll let the rain fall where it may



How many dreams have you erased?

So far between and few

And I wonder why the world got the best of you

Feel free to disagree but you'll just be a brick in my wall

So take me as I am or don't take me at all



Choke down that advice reflex

And we'll all get by just fine

Tuck back the pearls of wisdom

Or you'll feel a piece of my mind



Who are you to tell me what is right?

You listen close

It's my fucking life

I'll let the rain fall where it may



Too late to think of stopping now

I can't give up

I don't know how

I will not live and die a slave



Have I always been wrong?

Maybe just maybe I don't belong

Am I lost in the deep?

Maybe just maybe I'll stay asleep



I do not want to wake up from this



Save me



And now I realize the dream was never like it seemed

What's there to wake up from when it's all real to me?
