Verse 1:
I'm leaving tonight
Down the same dirt road

A million times
I've driven just to get home
And I ain't ever looking back

For nothing

Headed for the coast

Looking for the high life
Everybody knows
It's nothing but a good time

And i sold everything I had
For something
I can't seem to find


Chorus:
So this is the life they talked about

This is the I can't 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


Verse 2:
These four walls feel more like a prison
Instead of pure highs

I couldn't wait to live in
So I just drink myself to sleep
Again

Can't escape my mind
This ain't like a movie
It's getting hard to hide





The more it's doin to me
Don't know how long I can keep
From going

Crazy all the time

Chorus:

So this is the life they talked about
This is the I can't 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


Nothings ever what it seems
Maybe that grass ain't so green

Nothings ever out of reach
When you're seventeen


Chorus:
So this is the life they talked about
This is the I can't 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
yeahh
