I've Sung My Song...

Someone said, Hey! Don't do that
Dont you know that that is wrong?
I replied, well I dont care
I've been doing it this way for so long...
As I walked off I thought to myself
Why can't folk just let me be?
Everyone has to much to say
And I really just want to be free...

Looking around I saw so many faces
Many from my past and some new,
But all of the faces looking back at me
Appeared to be looking straight through?
Well I dont care what they think
And I dont care what they say..
I only care what my closest think
Everyone else can go away...

I've sung my song, I've danced my dance
I really have nothing more to prove
As far as I'm concerned this life that I have
Is running near enough smooth...
So let me be, dont judge, dont interfere
What ever I do I'll do my way
What makes you think you have the right
To say the things that you say?

Sometimes I falter, sometimes I fail
And often I make mistakes
But they're mine to make, from them I'll learn
No one needs to dictate...
If you have an opinion that is fine
To be honest that's bloody great!
Just keep it to yourself, dont share it with me
Especially if I cannot relate!

So to the Woman who said hey dont do that
I say to her why not?
What's right is wrong, what's wrong is right
It depends on the outcome I got...
Sometimes I wonder about all the faces
That have gazed in my direction
The only face you should agree with
Is the one in your reflection...

Dont you know that that's the wrong way?
Well how am I supposed to learn?
Just leave me alone, let me find out
It's really none of your concern...
But having always being seen to be right
I suppose you believe you know it all?
The journeys over, the ship has sailed
And no! You cant watch me should I fall...
