Wake up at 6 AM, take a breath and shake your head
It's gonna be a better day you said, but it's just like yesterday
Check your phone before the light turns green and you're outta your head, in the screen instead
Spend a fortune to support your dreams with a lack of dividends
Tell yourself you're gonna make it work out
Make it work out make it work out
Tell yourself it'll come back around while the weight of the world's got you down
But it ain't like the movies
You can't always dance through the rain
Yeah this life keeps moving
You barely get a moment to process the pain
And you're figuring out
That it's worth it somehow
To keep your head in the game
Though it ain't like the movies
You still got a part to play
You're back home with time on your hands
But you're scared to make plans 'cause they all fall through
And you're worried you're losing your friends
They'll all move out and move on on you
You're in the shower with your head in your hands
As the hourglass sands fill up your room
Rip up the script in a manic attempt to somehow remember what's true
Tell yourself you're gonna make it work out
Make it work out make it work out
Tell yourself it'll come back around while the weight of the world's got you down
But it ain't like the movies
You can't always dance through the rain
Yeah this life keeps moving
You barely get a moment to process the pain
And you're figuring out
That it's worth it somehow
To keep your head in the game
Though it ain't like the movies
You still got a part to play
It ain't like the movies
You can't always dance through the rain
Yeah it ain't like the movies
The credits don't roll at the end
But it ain't like the movies
You can't always dance through the rain
Yeah this life keeps moving
You barely get a moment to process the pain
And you're figuring out
That it's worth it
Oh it's worth it to stay in the game
Though it ain't like the movies
You still got a part to play
