On the way
Trying to get where I'd like to say
I'm always feeling steered away
By someone trying to tell me

What to say and do
I don't want it
I gotta go find my own way
I gotta go make my own mistakes

Sorry man for feeling
Feeling the way I do
On yeah, Oh yeah
Open wide and they'll shove in

Their meaning of life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
But not for me I'll do it on my own
Oh yeah, Oh yeah

Open wide and swallow their meaning of life
I can't make it work your way
Thanks but no thanks
By the way

I know your path has been tried and so
It may seem like the way to go
Me, I'd rather be found
Trying something new

And the bottom line
In all of this seems to say
There's no right and wrong way
Sorry if I don't feel like

Living the way you do
