"Welcome to the real world"
|
she said to me condescendingly
|
"Take a seat, take your life
|
plot it out in black and white"
|
Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
|
and the drama queens
|
I'd like to think the best of me
|
is still hiding up my sleeve
|
|
They love to tell you "stay inside the lines"
|
but something's better on the other side
|
|
I wanna run through the halls of my high school
|
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
|
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
|
just a lie you've got to rise above
|
|
So the good boys and girls take the so-called right track
|
faded white hats grabbing the credits and making transfers
|
they read all the books but they can't find the answers
|
and all of our parents, they're getting older
|
I wonder if they've wished for anything better
|
while in their memories, tiny tragedies
|
|
they love to tell you "stay inside the lines"
|
but something's better on the other side
|
|
I wanna run through the halls of my high school
|
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
|
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
|
just a lie you've got to rise above
|
|
I am invincible
|
I am invincible
|
I am invincible
|
as long as I'm alive
|
|
I wanna run through the halls of my high school
|
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
|
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
|
just a lie you've got to rise above
|
|
I just can't wait till my ten year reunion
|
I'm gonna bust down the double doors
|
and when I stand on these tables before you
|
you will know what all this time was for
|
