Let me show you my emotions Tell you how I feel Hear my simple notions To me they're very real Can't you see they've got it wrong Set their morals high But it all comes down to one simple fact In the end we all die
So why can't we be free to do what we please Oh be free, get up off our knees Stop this facade, this silly game we play We set these rules which we can't obey It’s not real, this ain't how it should be This can't be life if we must pay a fee Break the chains and throw down the book Give me a chance to give back what they took
Please take in what I tell you Don't throw it away For the wisdom of God Is mine for today You live every hour with a lover by your side But when morning has come You still have secrets to hide
So tell me what you're feeling Let me touch your inner soul The reason I'm here Is to make you feel whole So quit your inhibitions The morals of this world Forgot to think of one small point I'm a boy and you're a girl
And we should be free to do what we please Oh be free, get up off our knees Stop this facade, this silly game we play We set these rules which we can't obey It’s not real, this ain't how it should be This can't be life if we must pay a fee Break the chains and throw down the book Give me a chance to give back what they took
I said what I had to say Said what makes me tick If you've listened to me thoroughly Then you and I are quits I may not have changed the way you think But at least I've had a try And I know that I'll have peace of mind When I die
