Free

Lets go!
Everybody needs to start their own fire
Everybody needs a riot of their own
Everybody needs to be something that they are not
Everybody needs to go it alone

Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant see what you need to see

Okay!
All the time spent hanging on to anything
All the time spent knowing that theyre wrong
All the time wasted, stolen back, innocent
You wont get a second more so move it along

Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant see what you need to see

Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant see what you need to see

Wishing and hoping and thinking its you
Thats got this all under control
Never a minute has passed you all by
When they havent invaded your soul

Its not something you can hold
Its not something you own
Its not something you can buy or steal
Youve got it when youre alone

Being free is a tragedy
When you dont know yourself
Being free is a tragedy
When you dont know who you are

Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant see what you need to see

Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you cant see what you need to see

Lets go!
Hey, hey, hey!
Alright then
This is the story of your life man

(and in other places around the world,
Its growing clear that the americans are trigger happy)
