Nightmare #lyric

Trying to make sense of this life 
Ideas swirling in my head 
Im more creative when I try not to be 
So I listen to myself instead

Ive given it some thought 
So glad the past is gone 
Seems like my moments come 
And I like that a lot 
Dont rain on my parade 
See Im here to stay 
The life Ive led so far 
Ive done a damn good job

Dont tell me what I can and cannot do 
Not while the night is young 
My life is free and not owned by you 
Not while the night is young 
Dont waste my time to be what people adore 
Not while the night is young 
Say what you will I dont care anymore 
Not while the night is young

I know I know 
Im all out of order 
Forgive if I speak my mind 
Ive had it to here with boring conversation 
Soon time will pass me by

Ive given it some thought 
So glad the past is gone 
Seems like my moments come 
And I like that a lot 
Dont rain on my parade 
See Im here to stay 
The life Ive led so far 
Ive done a damn good job

Dont tell me what I can and cannot do 
Not while the night is young 
My life is free and not owned by you 
Not while the night is young 
Dont waste my time to be what people adore 
Not while the night is young 
Say what you will I dont care anymore 
Not while the night is young

Im so tired of trying to be what you want 
Knowing I will never succeed 
Going forward 
Ill be just fine 
If you let me be who I want to be 
The first thing I think when I hear your words 
Is dont listen cause you only live once 
Im on a roll 
Fate dont stop me now 
Not while the night is young

The night is young 
The night is young 
Ohhhhhhhh

Dont tell me what I can and cannot do 
Not while the night is young 
My life is free and not owned by you 
Not while the night is young 
Dont waste my time to be what people adore 
Not while the night is young 
Say what you will I dont care anymore 
Not while the night is young
