If you run out of luck don't give in to hate
   Just find a new direction before it's too late
   If you hear them knocking on my door
   Just say that I'm not here I can't take it any more
   Well I'm leaving town and I won't be 'round
   'Til I reach my destination, tell the world I'm underground
   And it won't be long now that I've found love
   Gonna search the whole world over find a place where I belong
  
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
   Can't you see all the good that's inside of me
   Let me be, let me be oh I'm innocent, let me go
  
   Gonna walk my walk, talk my talk
   Don't need no-one's approval, gonna make it on my own
   Gonna have my say, gonna fly away
   I'll beat this beurocratic nightmare and social decay, oh yeah
   I've found out yeah, I found love
   Gonna stick to my dreams, gonna blow this world away
  
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
   Can't you see all the good that's inside of me
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go
  
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
   Can't you see all these feelings inside of me
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go
  
   Nobody cares, nobody hears
   Living in a vacuum, is anybody there?
   Someway, somehow just got to survive
   They'll never get my soul, they'll never take me alive
  
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
   Can't you see all these feelings inside of me
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go
  
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
   Can't you see all the good that's inside of me
   Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, I don't know
