Because I Can

(album: Fear & Freedom - 2012)

I lie awake here in my bed,
feel like a prisoner in my head
Don't wanna feel this way no more
Been pleasing everyone but me,
it's time that I cut myself free
Don't know what I've been waiting for

I've got this burning inside
and I don't know
What I'm supposed to do,
where I'm supposed to go
I don't know what it is,
but I know that it ain't this

Wanna walk around naked and drink champagne
Go dancing all night and sleep all day
Go to vegas for the weekend
just because I'm feeling crazy
Baby just because I can
and I will do whatever I want
And I don't need to answer to anyone
I'll flirt and I'll scream
and I'll say what I think oh yeah
Just because I can

I wonder why I've been so scared
cos suddenly I just don't care
Now I can see the light of day
How did I let you hold me back?
You were my first but not my last
I'm gonna do this my own way

I've got this burning inside
and I don't know
What I'm gonna do,
where I'm gonna go
I don't know what it is,
but I know that it ain't this

I've got this burning inside
And I think it's time for me to come alive
