Alive In The Lights-Memphis May Fire

[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.
