My Way

You were there when I didn't need you

Close when I didn't miss you

You're a hurricane and I am caught in the eye of your storm

You were scared that I didn't need you

Frightened I would ever leave you

Saw me blossom and you stole the sun

Watched me wither beneath

I tried my best to make you happy, make you proud

But the more I tried to make it work, you shut me out

I never met myself

I am breathing for the very first time

I'll try to live again, so I'll try believing

I deserve to feel okay when I see the world my way

I had a spark, yeah, I had a fire

You put it out with your own desires

But as the embers burned, I grew from the ash

Will you ever learn

I tried my best to make you happy, make you proud

But the more I tried to make it work, you shut me out

I never met myself

I am breathing for the very first time

I'll try to live again, so I'll try believing

I deserve to feel okay when I see the world my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it my way

Try believing

I deserve to feel okay when I see the world my way
