[Verse 1]
I listened to you from your pedestal
Telling us all how your world was full of shit
Why couldn't you bow and say, "Thank you all"
To everyone who made you what you are?

[Pre-Chorus]
It sent my heart, hurt, crashing down
'Cause these are my dreams you're bashing

[Chorus]
You're living the life
Can't you see you are living the life?
You're living the life that I only dream
Dream, dream
Dream, dream

[Verse 2]
The kingdom you own, does it drag you down?
I'll gladly relieve you of your big shiny crown
You say it's so frustrating now
I can't believe you're faking

[Chorus]
Living the life
Seems to me you are living the life
You're living the wonderful, wonderful life
[Bridge]
Tell me (Tell me)
Would you (Would you)
Really (Really)
Rather be a nobody nobody knows?
Oh, no

[Chorus]
You're living the life
Can't you see you are living the life?
You're living the life that I wanted
Living the life
Please don't tell me my dream is a lie
'Cause this is the way that I fill my heart
Fill my heart

[Post-Chorus]
Fly away home
Go on home
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Go, go, go
