you think i can wake up from my past
as if it were all just a dream
you try and tell me it wasn't as good as i remember
well, how the hell would you know?
i don't recall you being there by my side
geting high, getting laid, smiling like a fool all day
the dreams may not have delivered what they promised
but to deny their existence would be to cut out my soul
i didn't ask for your approval or your opinion or even your help
from where it was i was standing i didn't need it
the fragility of my journey was what it was all about
that i could fall, that i could fail
that i could do it all the way i wanted
that's what i was looking for
it wasn't just the journey though
it was the destination
i didn't ask to be born and i'm not looking for death
nor will i embrace it
but this life i have is mine
and i will continue to be that life.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    This is how I defined
