Have you ever felt alone, suppressed, let down, in a place where you don't belong?
And do you feel like, giving up is the only option?
It's just a lost cause, a foreclosure of passion
A ripple in a tide as each wave passes
Just hitting the wall and breaking away
You try and crush my dreams with every word you say
I will never know where this journey may end
I will never know where this journey may end
Where do I go from here?
I'm selling my soul to the open road for the life that I want to live
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
You think you know what's best for me? You don't know shit
If you really knew what's meant for me, you'd know that this is it
I promise I will not let you down
I promise I will not let you down
I'm selling my soul to the open road for the life that I want to live
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
Look me in my eyes, I will make you proud
Look me in my eyes, I will make you proud
Thank you mother, and thank you father, I won't let you down, let you down
Thank you mother, thank you father, I won't let you down
I won't let you down
I'm selling my soul to the open road for the life that I want to live
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
And do you feel like, giving up is the only option?
It's just a lost cause, a foreclosure of passion
A ripple in a tide as each wave passes
Just hitting the wall and breaking away
You try and crush my dreams with every word you say
I will never know where this journey may end
I will never know where this journey may end
Where do I go from here?
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
If you really knew what's meant for me, you'd know that this is it
I promise I will not let you down
I promise I will not let you down
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
Look me in my eyes, I will make you proud
Thank you mother, and thank you father, I won't let you down, let you down
Thank you mother, thank you father, I won't let you down
I won't let you down
Don't tell me yes, don't tell me no
I've got my own weight to lift
I'm selling my soul to the open road, for the life I want to live
For the life I want to live
