I Want What I Want

Oh-oh, oh

People tell their stories
Of what their life is not
Wasted years and broken dreams
They never gave a shot

I'm not gonna hold on while my life is flashing
Parachute off this plane because it's crashing (oh-oh, oh)

I want what I want, not what I need
Getting what you get, no, it ain't so bad
But I want what I want, not what I need
I need to live it up, I need to live it up now

Oh-oh, oh

Looking in the mirror
Tell me who do you see today
So conformed and broken
How did it get this way?

Tell me, have you said your goodbyes to freedom?
Where are your dreams now? You really need them (oh-oh, oh)

I want what I want, not what I need
Getting what you get, no, it ain't so bad
But I want what I want, not what I need
I need to live it up, I need to live it up now (oh-oh, oh)

I want what I want, not what I need
Getting what you get, no, it ain't so bad
But I want what I want, not what I need
I need to live it up, I need to live it up now

This could have been my story (story)
This could have been my way (my way)
But no guts, no glory (glory)
It's not a game I want to play

Tell me, have you said your goodbyes to freedom?
Where are your dreams now? You really need them (oh-oh, oh)

I want what I want, not what I need
Getting what you get, no, it ain't so bad
But I want what I want, not what I need
I need to live it up, I need to live it up now (oh-oh, oh)

I want what I want, not what I need
Getting what you get, no, it ain't so bad
But I want what I want, not what I need
I need to live it up, I need to live it up now

Oh-oh, oh
