Don't punish me
You shouldn't care
What's on my sleeve
Is mine to bare
And after all, who made the rules?
Who makes what acceptable

In time I'll know what it takes to go
My own way, my own way.

Last night you came to me
With a head full of insanity
Perceptions of a fallen world
I never claimed that I had found the pearls

In fact the sky has fallen twice
Since I went and took my own advice
But it doesn't mean I'll change anything
That I'll change a thing

In you'll know what it takes to go
Your own way, your own way.

Don't punish me you shouldn't care
What's on my sleeve is mine to bare
And after all, who made the rules?
Who makes what acceptable
