Got a call from an old friend, we used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American Way
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives them the stand-up routine in L.A.
I don't need you to worry for me 'cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said you had to
I never said I was a victim of sarcasm
I still belong, don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind, but not on my time
They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
a bit sooner or later you sleep in your own
space
either way it's okay you wake up with yourself
i don't need you to worry for me because i'm all right
i don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time
I don't care what you say anymore
This is my life
Go ahead with your own life
Leave me alone
Keep it to yourself
it's my life. Keep it to yourself, it's my life. Keep it to yourself, it's my life.
Keep it to yourself, it's my life. Keep it to yourself, it's my life.
