​​it’s all fallen behind me

[Verse]
I looked into my own eyes and found
All of my decisions came circling around
On the outside, banging on the window
The door to my future is locked

[Chorus]
They don’t think it’s something, but I do
I’d rather be living my life like you
In school and educated
It’s wasted, it’s wasted

[Verse]
So now, I take a good look around
I realize, that I will be stuck inside this town
The school bus is leaving, and I’m still asleep
Tell me to wake up, so I can leave this dreamlike state
A tux, a tie, a corsage, date
All of it has packed up and flew away
I’ve lеft my dream behind, and I watched it fall
To, thе floor, right in those halls

[Chorus]
They don’t think it’s something, but I do
I’d rather be living my life like you
In school and educated
It’s wasted, it’s wasted, wasted
They don’t think it’s something, but I do
I’d rather be living my life like you
In school and educated
It’s wasted, it’s wasted, it’s wasted

[Bridge]
You may envy my life, but I can guarantee
If we could switch for one day, you’d give it all back to me
So I look among the crowd, laughing and enjoying life
I’ll never be one of them, so I’ll just stay the fuck outside

[Outro]
I should’ve known what I was throwing away
The dresses, the proposals, the dancing
Now, 18 years leading up to this
I dropped it all in that cold hallway, and it’s all fallen behind me
It’s faded away
It’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone (It’s gone)
It’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone
