《Like High School》歌词

[00:00:00] Like High School - Matt Duke (马特·杜克)

[00:00:13] A mother wakes her child

[00:00:15] And dons a smile

[00:00:17] The helplessness of

[00:00:19] The love and hope

[00:00:21] She holds so tightly

[00:00:22] How her baby's grown up

[00:00:26] The day begins

[00:00:27] The doe eyed kid

[00:00:29] The one with big ambition

[00:00:32] Perfects his dress

[00:00:33] So he'll impress

[00:00:35] But it's just ammunition

[00:00:38] The pretty girls

[00:00:40] Aware the world

[00:00:41] Will serve their petty appetite

[00:00:45] And pander to the dudes

[00:00:47] Who buy the booze

[00:00:49] To party friday nights

[00:00:51] They rifle threats

[00:00:53] As you lament

[00:00:54] How no one acts like they should

[00:00:57] Prey on the lame

[00:00:59] The caste remains

[00:01:01] The same into adulthood

[00:01:02] Because when you step into the real world

[00:01:08] It's just like high school

[00:01:10] So they told you it's a fresh start

[00:01:13] That you'll make it with a clean heart

[00:01:16] Well they left you in the dark

[00:01:18] They were leading you leading you on

[00:01:23] Something's got to give right

[00:01:26] Or stay this way all my life

[00:01:29] I'm sorry but they lied

[00:01:31] They were leading you leading you on

[00:01:38] The bass line kicks

[00:01:40] The same old shit

[00:01:41] It strikes a nerve and haunts you

[00:01:45] While faces change

[00:01:46] That old refrain

[00:01:48] It sticks just like a tattoo

[00:01:51] The cliques were formed

[00:01:52] Before you were born

[00:01:54] And they did not include you

[00:01:57] Your expectation's

[00:01:59] Medication's how you'll have to get through

[00:02:04] Because when you step into the real world

[00:02:07] It's just like high school

[00:02:10] So they told you it's a fresh start

[00:02:13] That you'll make it with a clean heart

[00:02:16] Well they left you in the dark

[00:02:17] They were leading you leading you on

[00:02:22] Something's got to give right

[00:02:25] Or stay this way all my life

[00:02:28] I'm sorry but they lied

[00:02:30] They were leading you leading you on

[00:02:36] The art of growing up

[00:02:40] Is to realize you'll hate everything and everyone

[00:02:46] You loved so much

[00:02:53] Young troubled souls

[00:02:55] Without a role model to look up to

[00:02:59] And still you wonder why a kid

[00:03:02] Would bring a gun to high school

[00:03:06] So they told you it's a fresh start

[00:03:09] That you'll make it with a clean heart

[00:03:12] Well they left you in the dark

[00:03:14] They were leading you leading you on

[00:03:18] Something's got to give right

[00:03:21] Or stay this way all my life

[00:03:24] I'm sorry but they lied

[00:03:26] They were leading you leading you on

[00:03:31] So they told you it's a fresh start

[00:03:33] That you'll make it with a clean heart

[00:03:36] Well they left you in the dark

[00:03:38] They were leading you leading you on

[00:03:43] Something's got to give right

[00:03:46] Or stay this way all my life

[00:03:49] I'm sorry but they lied

[00:03:51] They were leading you leading you on

[00:03:57] Leading you leading you on

[00:04:04] Leading you leading you on

[00:04:10] Leading you leading you on
