Let me make my own mistake

I look in the mirror

And I no longer know

The girl staring back at me

Who is she?

Looks like a prisoner to me

Someone whose been shielded

From all reality

Never got to make the choice

Never had her vary own voice

Let me make my own mistake

Let me lie in the bed I alone will make

Let it be

Let me screw up my life

If that’s what it’s gonna take

Let me learn

But let me learn from me

Now its time for me to try

To sped my own wings and learn to fly

Now it’s time for me to go

Out into this big oh world

That I do not know

Let me make my own mistake

Let me lie in the bed I alone will make

Let it be

Let me screw up my life

If that’s what it’s gonna take

Let me learn

But let me learn from me

Smiles and frowns

Lups and downs

Love and hate

Betrayal and faith

These are things

You never let me see

Let me make my own mistake

Let me lie in the bed I alone will make

Let it be

Let me screw up my life

If that’s what it’s gonna take

Let me learn

But let me learn from me

Now that I’m grown

You have to sit back

And watch me fly

Now that I’m grown

You have to let me learn

Right now it’s my turn

I can’t learn from a mistake

I myself do not make

Let me make my own mistake

Let me lie in the bed I alone will make

Let it be

Let me screw up my life

If that’s what it’s gonna take

Let me learn

But let me learn from me

Let me learn

But let me learn from me
