Real Life isn't Like This

from We Just Pretend This is a War by rooFTops

lyrics

Every note
a disposable release
every town and every load in was an endless guarantee
never once occurring to me every road comes to an end
never ever crossing my mind that the needle reaches E

The long drives
now a distance memory
give me a fist fight I can still afford the teeth
give me another escape I tried real life, it didn't take
or take me long before 46 if I peaked at 23

I'm ready for more
if it's still out there
and if it's running away
I better run faster

Took it for granted
well the young ones always do
but it was the only way that our words could speak the truth
never every striving for more ignorance was sincerity
but my doleful forty hours a week ain't my only memory

I'm ready for more
if it's still out there
and if it's running away
I better run faster

Give me some more
I know it's still out there
and if it's running away
I better run after
