| Look, I think they set us up to let us down
|
| Cause I don’t quite know what to do, where to go, who I am, where I am right now
|
| Thought I would be on top, with a pool and a yacht by 29
|
| 23, she’s pregnant, I’m unemployed, we gon' be fine
|
| Or so I hope, will I choke, will I stay afloat
|
| Record label, no, let me go, got me losing hope
|
| I left college with no degree, oh woe is me
|
| This debt addressed to boulevard of broken dreams
|
| When I’m 30 I’ll be sold out at the stadium
|
| House big as palladium, you can let Tom Brady in
|
| These naked girls Canadian, this private jet my favorite
|
| To wave at aliens, that’s what I thought when I was 20
|
| I had plenty bumps and bruises
|
| Wrong turns, wins and loses
|
| Reality was gruesome when it grew from the illusion
|
| Feel like I was headed somewhere don’t remember where it was
|
| Somebody yelled, «Join the club!»
|
| We all got lost
|
| We all got lost
|
| We all got lost (I don’t know where to go)

| I fell off the written map
|
| I went both directions at the fork and I got split in half
|
| I made the mistake of tryna have my cake and eat it (eat it)
|
| Keep it and delete it
|
| Party all the time and somehow still succeed at my achievements
|
| This for every bartender with a bachelor degree
|
| If you have to craft amendments on the map to the peak
|
| For every former emcee who used to rap to the beat
|
| And had to sell his microphone cause life isn’t cheap
|
| For every girl who became a mom, whoops, on accident
|
| Wasn’t even tryna have a kid, you were just practicing
|
| For every musician that should have made it, never did
|
| And traded in their dreams but got this job with benefits
|
| And went to school and got the job, but never got happy
|
| What the fuck is going on?
|
| We followed the instructions and arrived at the mirage
|
| Thought everything went wrong
|
| Then I turned on my flashlight in the fog
|
| We all got lost
|
| The summer turned frost
|
| Somewhere on our way to the top
|
| We all got lost
|
| And we might never get back
|
| Searchin' for things we already have
|
| We all got lost (now I don’t know where to go)
|
| We all got lost
|
| Can you show me the way?

|
| He thought he’d be playing D2 like the Mighty Ducks
|
| She’s an actress, sleeping on a mattress

| Moved out to Hollywood, mom it’s gonna happen
|
| She went to audition, rejection, audition, depression and ibuprofen
|
| Questioning everything, sobbing watching the Oscars
|
| Man, I know by now she figured she would make it
|
| 10 years later she’s a damn good waitress
|
| So I tipped her good, said it’s lonely at the top
|
| She said she was lonely I said, «No you’re not»
