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 come & 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 questions & 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 that 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 & 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 punching bag, but I
will never let it hold me back
I just wish for once you knew how it felt 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 & 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 that I give up my dreams
& 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 & you might
not approve but it's real
This is the only thing that makes me feel
