For a while I pawned my soul
A sort of give and take
I got cheered and I got loved
At times it felt so fake
Still I laid my tears and heart
Into what I did
Not what I've been aiming for
But, kept the fire lit
Now I'm back to myself
Left my past on the shelf
Times are changing, so am I
May be right, may be wrong
But, I'm moving along
Towards the place where my hearts lies
I know that I've been crazy
I know that I've been faking
I know that I've been crazy
I know that you've been waiting
What I've seen is a damn charade
Lies and jealousy
Painted smiles, no self-esteem
Lacking pride and glee
They don't know how to live a dream
Life's a roller coaster ride
Not a plotted scheme
Well I know what I want
I don't care if you don't
It's your responsibility
You can beg, you can plead
Do a job on your knees
Now this chance is taking me
I know that I've been crazy
I know that I've been faking
I know that I've been crazy
I know that you've been waiting
Yeah, its free to be inspired
To live your life and dream
Yeah, it's free
To chase a dream and just live
