"1517" lyrics

Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
You've paid your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?
You've paid your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no

People in Northern Europe
Since medieval times
We find it hard to deal with
When our dreams come true
As if happiness exists
In the world at a fixed amount
And if you feel up
Somebody somewhere else feels down

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no
