Well I don’t want to be the one who’s left out of the light, All my friends are growing up and leading adult lives. I’m 22 and I don’t want to be told that The life I lead is falling behind, Don’t take what’s left of the ounce of youth that’s still in me
Here’s the thing I feel like I’ve been told for far too long that I’m dreaming And here’s the thing I don’t wanna be told that the life I lead is The wrong story
Well I don’t want to be the one whose goals are out of reach, Working day by day just to survive is not my dream
Here’s the thing I feel like I’ve been told for far too long that I’m dreaming And here’s the thing I don’t wanna be told that the life I lead is The wrong story
I’ll let it slip away, Out of my arms. Nothing feels as good As these long drives. The nights we won’t forget Are the ones we felt alive
So here’s the thing I feel like I’ve been told for far too long that I’m dreaming And here’s the thing I don’t wanna be told that the life I lead is The wrong story
(You said “get over this dream you’ve been chasing” Well I’ll never give up on this You don’t understand that this is all we have, this all we are)
So here’s the thing I feel like I’ve been told for far too long that I’m dreaming And here’s the thing I don’t wanna be told that the life I lead is The wrong story
