Maybe life is like a ride on a freeway Dodging bullets while you're trying to find your way Everyone's around, but no one does a damn thing It brings me down, but I won't let them
If I seem bleak, well, you'd be correct And if I don't speak, it's 'cause I can't disconnect But I won't be burned by the reflection Of the fire in your eyes
As you're staring at the sun, whoa
Hey, when I ran I didn't feel like a runaway Hey, when I escaped I didn't feel like I got away Hey, there's more to living than only surviving Maybe I'm not there, but I'm still trying
Though you hear me, I don't think that you relate My will is something that you can't confiscate So forgive me, but I won't be frustrated By destruction in your eyes
