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 up by the reflection

Of the fire in your eyes

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun

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 staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

(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 staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

(Hey) Maybe life is like a ride on a freeway

(Hey) Dodging bullets while you're trying to find your way

(Hey) 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 up by the reflection

Of the fire in your eyes

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun, oh

As you're staring at the sun

As you're staring at the sun
