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

When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway

When I escaped I didn't feel like I got away

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

As you're staring at the sun
