Im leaving tonight
Down the same dirt road
A million times
Ive driven just to get home
And I aint ever looking back
For nothing
Headed for the coast
Looking for the high life
Everybody knows
Its nothing but a good time
And I sold everything I had
For something
I cant seem to find
So this is the life they talked about
And this is the I cant live without
When the real world crashes down
Oh if they could see me now
When all the dreams are all your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life
This is the life
ohohoh
These four walls feel more like a prison
Instead of pure highs
I couldnt wait to live in
So I just drink myself to sleep
Again
I cant escape my mind
This aint like a movie
Its getting hard to hide
More its doin to me
I dont know how long I can keep
From going
Crazy all the time
So this is the life they talked about
So this is the I cant live without
When the real world crashes down
Oh if they could see me now
When all the dreams are all your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life
Nothings ever what it seems
Maybe that grass aint so green
Nothings ever out of reach
When youre seventeen
This is the life they talked about
This is the I cant live without
When the real world crashes down
Oh if they could see me now
When all the dreams are all your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life
Ohhoh
This is the life
yeah
