[Verse 1]
Living the Fgood life full of goodbyes
CMy eyes are on the grey skies
Saying GI don't want to come home tonight
Yeah, and I'm Fhigh up, off what?
CI don't even remember
But my Gfriend passed out in the Uber ride
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'm from the Fcity of the 9-1-C5
Where all the girls are Gpretty
And they're down for the hype
All my boys are Fwith me
Going up for the Cnight
But who Gcares, who cares
'Cause this is our Fyear C
[Chorus]
So wake me up in the Gspring
While I'm high off my American Fdream C
We don't always say what we Gmean
That's the lie of an American teen
[Verse 2]
FMaybe the end is near
CBut I've been waiting all year
GTo get the hell up out of here
And throw away my fears
I'm so Ffaded (I'm so faded)
Off of Call the things that I've taken, and
GMaybe I'm not really drunk
Maybe I'm really good at faking
[Pre-Chorus]
From the Fcity of the 9-1-C5
Where all the girls are Gpretty
And they're down for the hype
All my boys are Fwith me
Going up for the Cnight
But who Gcares, who cares
'Cause this is our Fyear C
[Chorus]
So wake me up in the Gspring
While I'm high off my American Fdream C

That's the lie of an American teen F
