[00:00.36]From the beginning I knew I was different.
[00:04.74]I embraced it, but you didn't.
[00:07.82]Your normal life, 9-5, it's just not for me.
[00:12.45]I need to feel alive!
[00:14.26].
[00:14.51]I won't fall like the rest of them,
[00:17.89]They've come and gone with the wind.
[00:21.20]I hear the doubt in the back of your mind
[00:24.01]But still I'll see this through to the end.
[00:28.08]Maybe if you paid more attention,
[00:30.89]Asked more questions & actually listened
[00:34.01]You would see this is not just a dream,
[00:37.45]But a path I've chosen that means everything to me.
[00:41.75].
[00:42.13]Don't you see the minds that have changed?
[00:44.75]Don't you see the lives that have been saved?
[00:49.19]Don't you care to see the difference I've made?
[00:54.75].
[00:55.01]Listen closely, the highways call my name.
[01:02.38]Don't you see this is my everything?
[01:06.82]It may not seem right to you
[01:11.38]And you might not approve but it's real.
[01:16.25]This is the only thing that makes me feel.
[01:22.44].
[01:22.75]What more do I have to do to finally prove myself to you?
[01:30.57]What is it that you need to see
[01:33.13]To finally believe this is who I'm supposed to be?
[01:38.19].
[01:48.56]Most days I feel like your punching bag,
[01:56.76]But I will never let it hold me back.
[01:59.26]I just wish for once you knew how it felt
[02:02.64]To be brought down lower than everything else.
[02:05.95].
[02:06.89]Don't you care to see the difference I've made?
[02:13.07].
[02:13.32]Listen closely, the highways call my name.
[02:20.53]Don't you see this is my everything?
[02:25.10]It may not seem right to you
[02:29.72]And you might not approve but it's real.
[02:34.41]This is the only thing that makes me feel.
[02:40.20].
[02:40.38]This is who I am!
[02:43.82]This is my life. I come alive in the lights!
[02:52.88]I come alive in the lights.
[02:56.26].
[03:02.04]What will be written on your tombstone?
[03:05.66]You sat behind a desk. You had no backbone.
[03:09.47]What will be written on your tombstone?
[03:12.66]You sold your soul, grew old alone.
[03:16.79]Would you prefer that I become a lifeless,
[03:20.22]hollow shell such as yourself?
[03:23.98]Would you prefer that I give up my dreams
[03:27.54]And lose all hope just like everyone else?
[03:31.17].
[03:31.60]Don't you see the lives that have been saved?
[03:37.92].
[03:38.16]Listen closely, the highways call my name.
[03:45.48]Don't you see this is my everything?
[03:49.85]It may not seem right to you
[03:54.61]And you might not approve but it's real.
[03:58.98]This is the only thing that makes me feel.
