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
