Why should I have to act
How they want me to act
Every man for himself
That ain't a dream I can catch
Falling deep into love
With every one of my friends
Because the purpose of life
Is to give everything
I don't believe in happiness
At the expense of being me
I don't believe in happenstance
Or the intention to deceive
Why should I have to act
How they want me to act
Every man for himself
That ain't a dream I can catch
Falling deep into love
With every one of my friends
Because the purpose of life
Is to give everything
Standing in a sermon
To be forgiven
For things we've not yet done
Dusk turns into morning
Say hello to the new-born sun
Why should I have to act
How they want me to act
Every man for himself
That ain't a dream I can catch
Falling deep into love
With every one of my friends
Because the purpose of life
Is to give everything
While we are all equals
We are equally unique
There is no simple definition
Of a single human being
Everyone is free to
Be who they want to be
Who are you to limit us
By your own human beliefs
Why should I have to act
How they want me to act
Every man for himself
That ain't a dream I can catch
Falling deep into love
With every one of my friends
Because the purpose of life
Is to give everything
