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
