From the beginning I knew I was different I embraced it but you didn't Your normal life 9-5 It's just not for me I need to feel alive I won't fall like the rest of them They've got come and gone with the wind I hear the doubt in the back of your mind But still I'll see this through to the end Maybe if you paid more attention Asked more for questions And actually listened You would see this is not just a dream But a path I've chosen that means everything to me
Don't you see the minds have changed? Don't you see the lives that have been saved? Don't you care to see the difference I've made? Listen closely The highways call my name Don't you see this is my everything? It may not seem right to you And you might not approve but it's real This is the only thing that makes me feel
What more do I have to do to finally prove myself to you? What is it that you need to see to finally believe this is who I'm supposed to be? Most days I feel like your puching back But I will never let it hold me back I just wish for once you knew How it feel to be brought down lower than everything else
Don't you care to see the difference I've made? Listen closely The highways call my name Don't you see this is my everything? It may not seem right to you And you might not approve but it's real This is the only thing that makes me feel
This is who I am This is my life I come alive in the lights I come alive in the lights
What will be written on your tombstone ? You sat behind a desk You had no backbone What will be written on your tombstone ? You sold your soul Grew old alone Would you prefer that I become a lifeless, hollow shell Such as yourself Would you prefer I give up my dreams And lose all hope just like everyone else?
Don't you see the lives that have been saved? Listen closely The highways call my name Don't you see this is my everything? It may not seem right to you And you might not approve but it's real This is the only thing that makes me feel
