If there's anything I've learned
My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
We will get it all on film
But he says, someone you don't know
Close to my chest
That they should all have to pretend
Anticipate
Come clean and relax
We don't say everything
So that I can see you
My own way
You are subtle as a window pane
Before you let go
Seems like everyone's an actor
It's how to find my own way there
Standing in my view
Is someone you don't know
Get a firm grip, girl
But I do
Oh, you misunderstood
Another lies in wait
You call me up at night
But I will wait for it to rain
We lost sight of everything
Or they're an actor's best friend
Before you let go
I wonder what was wrong to begin with
My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
But I do
For every hand extended
Get a firm grip, girl
For every hand extended
'Cause someone you don't know
But I will wait for it to rain
Pick a fight with the police
I say what I have to
Keep your eye on that one
When there's no light passing through
Anticipate
Is someone you don't know
For the new release
And you think that I don't understand
Get a firm grip, girl
So that I can see you
I hold my cards up
Find my own way
So that we can say later
Before you let go
Keep your eye on that one
Someone you don't know
And you think that I don't understand
When there's no light passing through
For every hand extended
Another lies in wait
Dress down get out there
Keep your eye on that one
When we have to keep checking our backs
Another lies in wait
Is someone you don't know
All these years on my own
My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
You call me up at night
And I hold back the rest
I think we should all just smile
That we could
