No Such Thing (extended Live Version) Lyrics - John Mayer

"Welcome to the real world," she said to me 

Condescendingly 

Take a seat, take your life and 

Plot it out in black and white 

Well, I never lived the dream of the prom kings 

and the drama queens, I'd like to think the best of me 

Is still hiding up my sleeve 

I 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 want to 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 hats 

Grabbing credits and maybe transfers 

They read all the books but they can't find the answers 

And all of our parents, they're getting older 

I wonder if they wish for anything better 

While in their memories 

Tiny tragedies 

They love to tell you, stay inside the lines 

Well, something's better on the other side 

I wanna run through the halls in my high school 

I want to 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 

(Come on, come on, come on) 

I am invincible 

You are invincible 

We are invincible 

As long as we're alive 

I wanna run through the hall in my high school 

I want to 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 'till my 10 year reunion 

I'm gonna bust down the double doors 

And when I stand on the tables before you 

You will know what all this time was for
