Why would a man who believed in no god
Sacrifice all he had
To kill or be killed in pursuit of a cause
Was the fate that called to him
[Chorus]
And you can say he might be crazy
And some can't understand
That a life spent doing less than all you can would be a waste
There's only one way to truely succeed
And it's not through intervention
To influence the minds of the rest of mankind
Will best serve your intentions
[Chorus]
If you just can't make the world what you want
At least you can make yourself
An example for others to learn from and see
The future for themselves
[Chorus]
Why would a man who believed in no god
Sacrifice all he had
To kill or be killed in pursuit of a cause
Was the fate that called to him
And you can say he might be crazy
And some can't understand
That a life spent doing less than all you can would be a waste
And it's not through intervention
To influence the minds of the rest of mankind
Will best serve your intentions
At least you can make yourself
An example for others to learn from and see
The future for themselves

kinda sounds like Alone in a Crowd dosen't it? a slow acoustic song to end the cd...
Afterthoughts of the story of Trotsky, where people don't understand why someone would give up everything he had for what he truly believed in.
Most of the chorus sounds like "Can You Feel The Love Tonight".
Also, every time I hear this song, it bothers me that the chorus doesn't rhyme.
