This Is My Life

I grew up in a modern city

But it was so good to go out on the streets

I saw so many happy people, just living

I moved here where I currently live and it changed

Passengers began to appear

Since then I noticed that I haven't learned anything.

Pretty much everything I long for is considered a mistake

If what I like is a problem,

Why don't I feel wrong?

I tried to be calmer, but it's over now

I tried to stay cool, but it didn't do any good

This isn't about anyone, not anymore

It's just about me, what really matters

If what I am is a mistake, then well:

This is my life, like it or not...

(He-e-ey, This Is My Life, Hmmm)

There's no way I can ask someone to love me

If that someone doesn't show it

In this race for life, people are what they show

In my opinion, when you like it, you show it

I don't want to have to mold myself to someone else anymore

I'm like this, this is me, if you don't like it... I'm sorry

It's not cool for me to ask to be noticed, just as it's not cool for you to pretend to love me.

(He-e-ey, This Is My Life, Hmmm)

I've heard people tell me that they'll always leave my life if I stay like this.

Fuck it, I can live alone

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be desired by the person you like.

There is no defect when you demand the minimum

I am grateful for who I am, and even more grateful for going out on the streets every day and fighting for what I believe in. (Yeah, baby, this is me...)
