(Micky Dolenz) Micky Dolenz Music (BMI) Lead Vocal: Micky Dolenz It's my life and I'm takin' over now It's my life and it's time that I learned how No excuses. For the truth is It's my life now I stumble and I fall And I think about it all Then I make amends But it never ends And I've just begun to wonder why And I listen to the songs And I read all the words And I seem to remember something that I heard Of a fire and a cave and shadows on the wall It's my life and I'm takin' over now It's my life and it's time that I learned how No excuses. For the truth is It's my life now I wanna believe in the miracles But they mix me up. Then they pass the cup And I've just begun to look the other way And I don't want to lean on the stars or on the dreams On the fantasies or the deities Don't I think it's time to lean on me? It's my life and I'm takin' over now It's my life and it's time that I learned how No excuses. For the truth is It's my life now No excuses. For the truth is It's my life now
