Let's 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 can't be what you want to be Living so free is a tragedy When you can't see what you need to see
Okay! All the time spent hanging on to anything All the time spent knowing that they're wrong All the time wasted, stolen back, innocent You won't get a second more so move it along
Because! Living so free is a tragedy When you can't be what you want to be Living so free is a tragedy When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy When you can't be what you want to be Living so free is a tragedy When you can't see what you need to see
Wishing and hoping and thinking it's you That's got this all under control Never a minute has passed you all by When they haven't invaded your soul
It's not something you can hold It's not something you own It's not something you can buy or steal You've got it when you're alone
Being free is a tragedy When you don't know yourself Being free is a tragedy When you don't know who you are
Living so free is a tragedy When you can't be what you want to be Living so free is a tragedy When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy When you can't be what you want to be Living so free is a tragedy When you can't see what you need to see
Let's go! Hey, hey, hey! Alright then This is the story of your life man
