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
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

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

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