Looking down on the cars on the highway The stream of tail lights Everybody advancing together Do so willingly sacrifice rights When people accept they're cogs in the system Give up free will, conform Individual pieces of dust swirl together Become a full storm Looking down on the burgeoning city The skyscrapers rise Even men with the greatest intentions Start believing their own lies We can borrow from the future
But eventually someone's got to pay The only way out of the cycle Is to strike out and pave your own way Yeah We all fight our own fight Will you fuel the desire to win Always struggling with the truth Of the life that might have been But no matter how jagged your path is You'll always come back to the road When the dust of battle settles The war still rages within
