The Academic - This Is Your Life Lyrics

The Academic Lyrics

"This Is Your Life"

Hey!
Don't wanna learn?
Don't you wanna try?
If you feel a tear
Blame it on the wind
There's something in your eye

This is your life
I'm not gonna tell you how to live it this time
No need to apologise
Hoping I can be the answer tonight

And you disobey your curfew
So your best friends won't ignore you
Is it okay if I say I'm not feeling alright?

This is your life
This is your life
Rest up your mind
This is your life

Hey!
Get yourself a job
And buy yourself a house
Spinning on a wheel
Running through a maze
No way of getting out

This is your life
I'm not gonna tell you how to live it this time
No need to apologise
Hoping I can be the answer tonight

And you disobey your curfew
So your best friends won't ignore you
Is it okay if I say I'm not feeling alright?

This is your life
This is your life
Rest up your mind
This is your life

And you disobey your curfew
So your best friends won't ignore you
Is it okay if I say I'm not feeling alright?

This is your life
This is your life
Rest up your mind
This is your life

This is your life
This is your life
This is your life
This is your life
Rest up your mind
Rest up your mind
This is your life
This is your life
