The beginning was so easy Do whatever to survive In the middle of my story All I want is to feel alive And I am not my mother or father And I am not yesterday's son I'm not broken I'm a wide open highway With room to run All these voices and decisions Swimming circles in my head All these choices and opinions Feeling heavy as lead And I am not my mother or father And I am not yesterday's son I'm not broken I'm not broken I'm a wide open highway With room to run With room to run In the middle of my story All I want is to feel alive And I am not my mother or father And I am not yesterday's son I'm not broken I'm not broken I'm a wide open highway With room to run With room to run With room to run
