I find myself
    I'm just awastin' my time away
    No matter what I do
    It always ends up the same
    One minute moves
    Into the next
    My life was simple
    But now it's complex
    And it doesn't seem to mean anything at all
    And everything I want to be
    Is just another silly dream, you see
    But I'll keep dreaming just the same
    
    Sometimes it's hard to be me
    When people stand in my way
    I get so easily discouraged
    Well, what can I say
    They try to mess you up
    They try to push you around
    They'll do anything
    To bring you down
    
    I'm not gonna be
    Stuck in mediocrity
    When everybody's trying to bring me
    Back down to reality
    Oh, why can't they see
    Just how much this means to me
    Maybe one day I'll be special
    
    Your dreams are special to you
    But maybe others don't care
    It brings you down
    When you find them disregarded
    And when you're out on your own
    It's hard to make yourself stay
    And finish up what it was
    That you once started
    
    I'm not gonna be
    Taken down that easily
    When everybody's trying to tell me
    What I'm gonna have to be
    Oh, why can't they see
    Just how much this means to me
    Maybe one day I'll be special
    I'll be special
    
    It means nothing
    It means everything
    It means something to me
    What you tryin' to say
    I'm not gonna play
    In this little game
    That you have created for me
    You had your chance to do
    What you needed to
    And not it's time for me
    To step right up and
    Spin that wheel
    This time's for real
    
    It's not gonna work this time
    Cuz in the end it's going to be mine
    There's no need for me to stay
    Cuz everything is gonna go
    My way
    My way, my way
    My way
    My way, my way, my way
