No Such Thing - John Mayer (full lyrics)

"Welcome to the real world, " she said to me
Condescendingly
Take a seat, take your life
Plotted out in black and white
I never lived the dream of the prom kings
And the drama queens
I like to think the best of me
Is still hiding up my sleeve
They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
That something's better
On the other side
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
So the good boys and girls take the so-called right track
Fitted white heights, 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 wish for anything better
Wild in their memories, tiny tragedies
They love to tell you
Stay inside the lines
That something's better
On the other side
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
I am invincible
I am invincible
I am invincible
As long as I'm alive
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
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
