In a world where living's free
Why is it that when the past comes back
To haunt you (to haunt you)
You're forced to fend for yourself?
I won't be stranded
In the eye of society
I've got my opinions
And a right to my own beliefs.
If you open up your eyes
You'll see what's been wrong with the world
And (the world and) what they think
If you ever realize
You'll see there's no light shining over
(Shining over) all of this
The way you act will never break me in, but you'll wish you did
You were meant to hold me back
You were meant to hold me back
And I almost lost it all to you
You'll never take this from me
And I don't want to be know for waiting patiently
'Cause maybe waiting's never been my plan
I won't be grounded
By the hands of society
I've got my opinions
And a right to my own beliefs
