Maybe life is like a ride on the 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 get disconnected But I won't be burned by the reflection Of the fire in your eyes As you're staring at the sun (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 As you're starin' at the sun (Hey!)
