lyrics

So you think you're not being noticed unlike your heroes who everybody pays attention to
But don't compare yourself to your heroes, just always try and stay true cause your somebody's hero too

Whatcha think you're looking for, when everything you need is at your door
Living in a moving shadow keeps the sunshine away when you follow it around everyday
Don't worry about what surrounds you and go your own way
Cause life is yours to live today

Jayden wants to live the good life, he's got some real nice things but he lives beyond his means
He's trying to build his something from nothing, but charm is his only tool and it takes more than just being cool, so tell me

Whatcha think he's looking for, when everything he needs is at his door
Living in a moving shadow keeps the sunshine away when you follow it around everyday
Don't worry about what surrounds you and go your own way
It's time to go out and play, Cause life is yours to live today

Rainey's got some fancy diplomas, showing offer her name inside of some fancy frames
She hopes her status will bring her love, but behind those frames on the wall, love will never find her at all, so tell me

Whatcha think she's looking for, when everything she needs is at her door, somebody tell me
What are we looking for, when everything we need is at our door, yeah yeah
It's time to go out and play, and life is ours to live today
