Lyrics

“My Own Life”
Written by
Christy Bruneau, George Joseph Slavik, Laurie Clarke Gilbert

Go … to work today
Getting nowhere fast – just promotions
Go … through all the motions
Can’t keep pretending it’s ever, ever gonna change

Chorus (And I … )
Realize I don’t want to spend my time
Living someone else’s lie
(And I …)
Realize how I want to spend my time
— living my own life…my own life

Trapped … in the box
I was told to fit in
Trapped … in a world
feels like it has … no … forgiveness, I can’t pretend

(And I … )
Realize I don’t want to spend my time
Living someone else’s lie
(And I …)
Realize, I realize I want to spend my time
— living my own life…my own life

Face … the unknown
And the voices that won’t leave me alone
Face … all my self-doubts
My chance is now

(And I … )
Realize I don’t want to spend my time
Living someone else’s lie
(And I …)
Realize, I realize I want to spend my time
— living my own life…my own life
