it's my life

it's my life and i'm takin' over now, it's my life and it's time that i learned how, no excuses. for the truth is, it's my life now, i stumble and i fall, and i think about it all, then i make amends, but it never ends, and i've just begun to wonder why, and i listen to the songs, and i read all the words, and i seem to remember something that i heard, of a fire and a cave and shadows on the wall, it's my life and i'm takin' over now, it's my life and it's time that i learned how, no excuses. for the truth is, it's my life now, i wanna believe in the miracles, but they mix me up. then they pass the cup, and i've just begun to look the other way, and i don't want to lean on the stars or on the dreams, on the fantasies or the deities, don't i think it's time to lean on me?, it's my life and i'm takin' over now, it's my life and it's time that i learned how, no excuses. for the truth is, it's my life now, no excuses. for the truth is, it's my life now
