Livin' Th' Dream - You, Me, And Everyone We Know

Yesterday I turned 23

The date didn’t mean that much to me

Then I started adding figures up in my head

It seems the cost of dreaming’s left me in the red.

Because of alcohol I’ve shared sixteen beds

There’s a five year reunion hanging over my head

At least 11'000 people think I’m something I’m not

The courage to let them down isn’t something I’ve still got.

Sometimes I want to cheat but I don’t

I want to quite but I won’t

'cause I made this bed.

Give me a shovel you’ll be amazed

At how fast I dig a grave

Baby just, lay in it.

You’re only brave 'til you’re scared

You’re only unique until compared

To every other worthless f**k trying to

Crawl into bed tonight.

You can’t afford to live like this (Yes we can, yes we can)

You can’t be dumb enough to dream so big (Yes we can, yes we can)

Because we’ll sail through the sleazy seas

Past all the casting couches, rug burned knees

No I’m not done yet, you know I’m only getting started.

You can’t afford to live like this

You can’t be dumb enough to dream so big.

Yeah we’ll sail through the sleazy seas

Past all the casting couches, rug burned knees

No I’m not done yet.

You can’t afford to live like this (Yes we can, yes we can)

You can’t be dumb enough to dream so big (Yes we can, yes we can)

Because we’ll sail through the sleazy seas

Past all the casting couches, rug burned knees

No I’m not done yet, you know I’m only getting started.
