Like High School - Matt Duke (马特·杜克)[00:00:00]
A mother wakes her child[00:00:13]
And dons a smile[00:00:15]
The helplessness of[00:00:17]
The love and hope[00:00:19]
She holds so tightly[00:00:21]
How her baby's grown up[00:00:22]
The day begins[00:00:26]
The doe eyed kid[00:00:27]
The one with big ambition[00:00:29]
Perfects his dress[00:00:32]
So he'll impress[00:00:33]
But it's just ammunition[00:00:35]
The pretty girls[00:00:38]
Aware the world[00:00:40]
Will serve their petty appetite[00:00:41]
And pander to the dudes[00:00:45]
Who buy the booze[00:00:47]
To party friday nights[00:00:49]
They rifle threats[00:00:51]
As you lament[00:00:53]
How no one acts like they should[00:00:54]
Prey on the lame[00:00:57]
The caste remains[00:00:59]
The same into adulthood[00:01:01]
Because when you step into the real world[00:01:02]
It's just like high school[00:01:08]
So they told you it's a fresh start[00:01:10]
That you'll make it with a clean heart[00:01:13]
Well they left you in the dark[00:01:16]
They were leading you leading you on[00:01:18]
Something's got to give right[00:01:23]
Or stay this way all my life[00:01:26]
I'm sorry but they lied[00:01:29]
They were leading you leading you on[00:01:31]
The bass line kicks[00:01:38]
The same old shit[00:01:40]
It strikes a nerve and haunts you[00:01:41]
While faces change[00:01:45]
That old refrain[00:01:46]
It sticks just like a tattoo[00:01:48]
The cliques were formed[00:01:51]
Before you were born[00:01:52]
And they did not include you[00:01:54]
Your expectation's[00:01:57]
Medication's how you'll have to get through[00:01:59]
Because when you step into the real world[00:02:04]
It's just like high school[00:02:07]
So they told you it's a fresh start[00:02:10]
That you'll make it with a clean heart[00:02:13]
Well they left you in the dark[00:02:16]
They were leading you leading you on[00:02:17]
Something's got to give right[00:02:22]
Or stay this way all my life[00:02:25]
I'm sorry but they lied[00:02:28]
They were leading you leading you on[00:02:30]
The art of growing up[00:02:36]
Is to realize you'll hate everything and everyone[00:02:40]
You loved so much[00:02:46]
Young troubled souls[00:02:53]
Without a role model to look up to[00:02:55]
And still you wonder why a kid[00:02:59]
Would bring a gun to high school[00:03:02]
So they told you it's a fresh start[00:03:06]
That you'll make it with a clean heart[00:03:09]
Well they left you in the dark[00:03:12]
They were leading you leading you on[00:03:14]
Something's got to give right[00:03:18]
Or stay this way all my life[00:03:21]
I'm sorry but they lied[00:03:24]
They were leading you leading you on[00:03:26]
So they told you it's a fresh start[00:03:31]
That you'll make it with a clean heart[00:03:33]
Well they left you in the dark[00:03:36]
They were leading you leading you on[00:03:38]
Something's got to give right[00:03:43]
Or stay this way all my life[00:03:46]
I'm sorry but they lied[00:03:49]
They were leading you leading you on[00:03:51]
Leading you leading you on[00:03:57]
Leading you leading you on[00:04:04]
Leading you leading you on[00:04:10]
