I never have the time to do the nothing that I want to do
I'm always rushing around being what other people want me to be
Well, the fabric of my soul is frayed and falling apart at the seams
I'm tied up and tied down by the strings of other people's dreams
I’m starting to see that that isn’t me
And my freedom isn’t free
But all I really want is some room to breathe
[Chorus]
Someday, I’ll learn to say no
Find a way to lighten my load
People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart
I'll learn to let go, whoa
And learn to say no
I'm feeling like a lion lying down behind the bars of this cage
Yeah, the king of the beasts is now the king of this enclosed space
Wear and tear and worry, they’ve been drawing their lines on my face, oh yes
I feel a whole lot older than my chronological age, yeah
I’m starting to see that that isn’t me
And my freedom isn’t free
Well, all I really want is some room to be me
[Chorus]
Someday, I’ll learn to say no
Find a way to lighten my load
People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart
I'll learn to let go, whoa
And learn to say no
I'm always rushing around being what other people want me to be
Well, the fabric of my soul is frayed and falling apart at the seams
I'm tied up and tied down by the strings of other people's dreams
I’m starting to see that that isn’t me
And my freedom isn’t free
But all I really want is some room to breathe
[Chorus]
Someday, I’ll learn to say no
Find a way to lighten my load
People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart
I'll learn to let go, whoa
And learn to say no
I'm feeling like a lion lying down behind the bars of this cage
Yeah, the king of the beasts is now the king of this enclosed space
Wear and tear and worry, they’ve been drawing their lines on my face, oh yes
I feel a whole lot older than my chronological age, yeah
I’m starting to see that that isn’t me
And my freedom isn’t free
Well, all I really want is some room to be me
[Chorus]
Someday, I’ll learn to say no
Find a way to lighten my load
People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart
I'll learn to let go, whoa
And learn to say no
