No
Such Thing
Artist: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 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
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 our parents
They’re getting older
I wonder if 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 ’til my 10 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
Me on the
song:
I know it’s not in the big picture and main
scene now, but I still love this song, when I heard it again, few days ago…it
just makes me happy…I like the meaning, the tune, even though I think John
Mayer seems real arrogant (well because he got the talent…he has that right)
but men…I do love his music…I also admire the arrangement or whatever it is
called the part when he plays his guitar…that’s just awesome
Is he the one who wrote
this song? I’m not really sure but from what I heard his the one writing most
of his songs so if that so…his a very expressive, creative and courageous
person…there’s this part that can be questioned…it raised my eyebrow at first
listening to the part when he sang I am invincible…as long as I’m alive… well
it just had too many meanings…and the first meaning that came to my mind is
that no limitation…free to do anything you want which can’t be right…specially
if it comes to conservative people…and old soul like me…but common sense tells
us that it is true because humans can really do anything they want as long as
their alive….I just hope that privilege will be use selflessly though…
My brother’s favorite song is
your body is a wonderland…his very creative in his lyrics…and very expressive,
really good…now I like his song waiting on the world to change…(also its music
video)I don’t hate Sanjaya but I kinda think he didn’t justify singing this
song on American Idol…ok I love his hair…eheheh…and him singing bathwater…I know
not all liked it, but I think I am more interested on his version of bathwater
than that of no doubt…well no doubt’s music is really good too but not the
genre I like.
The person I remember with this song is
Avon Ang don’t know why…but I remember you trying to learn the guitar chords of
this song…can you play it now? Its 3yrs ago…eheheh I miss you girl
