[English]

I've given up on being anything

Romeo, I do not need a referee

Telling me we're just a summer fling

But it's true

I found approval as a remedy

Every f- person I would have to please

Maybe I got that from you

But why?

It's my world and it's my life

It's my girl and it's my guy

I'll kiss 'em if I might like

I don't have you in mind

It's my world and it's my time

I'll waste it how I might like

I don't have you in mind

I don't have you in mind

There was a time when you were everything

All my self-assessment on your thought of me

Couldn't tell you who I was before

So, when

You shut the door and shut the world of me

How was I supposed to know who I should be

If I was no longer yours?

But why?

It's my world and it's my life

It's my girl and it's my guy

I'll kiss 'em if I might like

I don't have you in mind

It's my world and it's my time

I'll waste it how I might like

I don't have you in mind

I don't have you in mind

A full year later, you're calling me back

You say you're sorry for treating me like trash

It's totally okay, dude, I really don't mind

You got your revenge by being stuck with your life

So, you can keep drinking and living a lie

And talking all low when you're out with the guys

Doesn't matter to me, it won't affect my life

'Cause I don't care anymore

But why?

It's my world and it's my life

It's my girl and it's my guy

I'll kiss 'em if I might like

I don't have you in mind

It's my world and it's my time

I'll waste it how I might like

I don't have you in mind

I don't have you in mind
