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
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
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
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
As you're staring at the sun
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
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
