There's a man pacing outside in the thick of a fight, 
Thinking tonight is the night – alright. 
He throws caution to the sky. 
This is his life. What’s it gonna be: fight or fly? 

Oh the road is tried and true 
Running from the rules 
Now you're asking me if I approve. 

You know I do I love you too 
You know I do 
You’re not some formula that I set out to prove 
You’re on my side, you’re not uptight, 
I can’t lose 
You’re not some ordinary ordinary ordinary dude 

Oh, let me try oh, to survive it, survive it 
Oh the road's a lonely land 
Living all I can 
Now you're asking me to understand 

You know I do I love you too 
You know I do 
You’re not some formula that I set out to prove 
You’re on my side, you’re not uptight, 
I can’t lose 
You’re not some ordinary ordinary ordinary dude 

Are you gonna make me proud? are you gonna stick around? 
'cause I’ve given everything to make me normal 

And who do you think you are, knowing I've come this far? 
I'm not giving up until I live it up. oh the road divides ahead 
Stick together or we're dead 
Now you're asking if I have regrets.

You know I do I love you too 
You know I do 
You’re not some formula that I set out to prove 
You’re on my side, you’re not uptight, 
I can’t lose 
You’re not some ordinary ordinary ordinary dude
