(intro)
|
|
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 credits
|
Maybe 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 got to rise above
|
|
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
|
til my 10 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
|
