Lyrics

[Verse 1] "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 [Pre-Chorus] They love to tell you Stay inside the lines But something's better On the other side [Chorus] I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to 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 [Verse 2] So the good boys and girls take the so-called right track Faded white hats, grabbing credits and 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 [Pre-Chorus] They love to tell you Stay inside the lines But something's better On the other side [Chorus] I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to 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 [Bridge] I am invincible I am invincible I am invincible As long as I'm alive [Chorus] I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to 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 [Outro] I just can't wait 'til my ten-year reunion I'm going to bust down the double doors And when I stand on these tables before you You will know what all this time was for
