My Law

I've been struggling 

In a good girl straight jacket 

Time has come to say that's it 

If I spend my life waiting for tomorrow 

I'll wake up one day and it's over 

No-one's gonna come to deliver the goods 

Do it yourself 

Here is the clue 

It takes courage to follow your heart 

But as far as I'm concerned it's free of charge 

So tell me 

Who's stopping you, what's on your way 

Other people's wishes to obey 

Is your purpose to make them feel okay? 

Now who's to blame 

I'll stand behind every word I say

And I don't really care if you see me fail 

I'll make my own miracles 

With base hands I build my own paradise

This is my law

This is my system

This is my force my state my mission

This is my way

This is my vision

And the voice inside my head says

Let all the pressure out

Obey your deepest pleasures

Sacrifice the things you treasure

Life's a creation

I wanna look back at it and feel proud

My criteria 

For good life doesn't originate from materia 

So if you're looking for someone to call naive 

You can stop searching have a look at me 

I say all we need is already here 

But what it means is for your own eyes to see 

I'm not intimidated by threats 

I'll fight for the right to decide for myself 

Cause if you need a scapegoat you're sure to find one 

Rock the boat or you won't get nothing done 

Discard and start from scratch unafraid to leave 

Or turn back 

Been wrong as many times as I've been right 

I've lost the faith but never gave up the fight 

Consequences schmonsequences 

I'll bang my head on the wall till it crumbles
