Honestly, I can't keep my head up high Honestly, I can't get a hold on life You say "What 'cha wanna do man, will ya go far?" I say "How do you know who you really are?" Tell me what it's all about Livin' like you know yourself Fake it 'til you make it right Climbing to a new height Everybody's growin' up Wonder how I ended up Wonder if I gave myself enough time I'm livin' my own life I'm livin' my own life I don't care how I get mine I'm livin' my own life I keep my eyes to the sky like anyone else I keep my nose to the grindstone workin' myself I put my hands to the fire and swallow my pride I keep my deepest desires on an anchor line The vines close in As I dredge through the mire The floodlights dim As the trail climbs higher now I await for the slightest touch of asylum I'm livin' my own life I'm livin' my own life I don't care how I get mine I'm livin' my own life I'm livin' my own life I'm livin' my own life I don't care how I get mine I'm livin' my own life
