No Such Thing (Not Unplugged) lyrics by John Mayer
"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
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 and
Maybe transfers
They read all the books but
they can't find the answers
And all of my parents
They're getting older
I wonder 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
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
for 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
