John Mayer - No Such Thing [with Lyrics on the screen]
Tacken From his album "Room for Squares"

Lyrics here too:
Welcome to the real world
She said to me kind of 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
Id like to think the best of me
Is still hiding up my sleeve

They love to tell you stay inside the lines
But somethings 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 theres no such thing as the real world
Just a lie youve got to rise above

So the good boys and girls take the so-called right track
Faded white hats grabbing the credits and making transfers
They read all the books but they cant find the answers
And all of our parents, theyre getting older
I wonder if theyve wished for anything better
While in their memories, tiny tragedies

They love to tell you stay inside the lines
But somethings 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 theres no such thing as the real world
Just a lie youve got to rise above

I am invincible
I am invincible
I am invincible
As long as Im alive

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out theres no such thing as the real world
Just a lie youve got to rise above

I just cant wait till my ten year reunion
Im gonna bust down the double doors
And when I stand on these tables before you
You will know what all this time was for

  • Wow, this is why I think John Mayer is such an amazing artist. His message is clear, and suggests that the "so called right track" is not really the right "track", According to his lyrics, he was just a regular guy in high school. And this shows that anyone can be as talented and successful as him, even if you weren't the prom king, the popular person in school, or the person who went to collage and became a millionaire. The key to life isn't in the books, it's in the part that makes you happy.

  • Story of my life!

    You're not gonna find the answers in your cliques, yearbooks, or AP biology classes!

    It's all about living life YOUR way, so go the way you want to go, regardless of outside influence.
