I wanna see myself under the bright lights   Looking down at thousands of people, looking back up at me   Tell 'em my dreams will be shattered (Shattered)   When I wake up to reality   We've been at this game for so long now   Not gonna let it bring me down   Don't stop looking on the bright side   See you trying to shoot up the light   You can piss on my parade but I'm not gonna get wet      Why does he see the worst in everything?   Can't you see we're doing what we want to do?   Can't you see it doesn't matter what you say?   Doin' what we want, we'll do it all our way   We've been at this game for so long now   Not gonna let it bring me down   Don't stop looking on the bright side   See you trying to shoot up the light   You can piss on my parade but I'm not gonna get wet      Come out to the show   Then you'll go home and you'll know   We're just having fun and following our dream
