[Verse 1]
I give you my best wishes
May good fortune find you
But I just can't sit by while every bit of soul that's in you dies
And your better judgement bleeds you dry
It bleeds you dry
[Chorus]
So you've heard of all the lies about the coming of real life
And now you're asking yourself questions
To which you can't reply
But how long can you deny the myth about real life?
[Verse 2]
They told you "Son, that's about enough
You're not a child anymore
I think it's about time that you stop acting like one"
Responsibilities like trophies
It's the myth about real life
But it'll never make you happy
It's the myth about
[Chorus]
So you've heard of all the lies about the coming of real life
And now you're asking yourself questions
To which you can't reply
But how long can you deny?
It's the myth about real life
