HINDER
- The Life Lyrics / with translationsI'm leaving tonight down the same dirt road
A million times I've driven just to get home
And I ain't ever looking back
For nothing
Headed for the coast, looking for the high life
Everybody knows it's nothing but a good time
And I sold everything I had for something
I can't seem to find
So this is the life they talked about
This is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, this is the life, oh
These four walls feel more like a prison
Instead of paradise I couldn't wait to live in
So I just drink myself
To sleep again
I can't escape my mind, this ain't like a movie
It's getting hard to hide, the more it's doin' to me
Don't know how long I can keep
I'm going crazy all the time
So this is the life they talked about
So this is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, oh
Nothing is ever what it seems
Maybe that grass ain't so green
Nothing's ever out of reach
When you're seventeen
This is the life they talked about
This is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, oh, this is the life, yeah
A million times I've driven just to get home
And I ain't ever looking back
For nothing
Headed for the coast, looking for the high life
Everybody knows it's nothing but a good time
And I sold everything I had for something
I can't seem to find
So this is the life they talked about
This is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, this is the life, oh
These four walls feel more like a prison
Instead of paradise I couldn't wait to live in
So I just drink myself
To sleep again
I can't escape my mind, this ain't like a movie
It's getting hard to hide, the more it's doin' to me
I'm going crazy all the time
So this is the life they talked about
So this is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, oh
Nothing is ever what it seems
Maybe that grass ain't so green
Nothing's ever out of reach
When you're seventeen
This is the life they talked about
This is the "I can't live without"
When the real world crashes down
Oh, if they could see me now
When all the dreams of on your own
Turn to nightmares all alone
It hits you right between the eyes
This is the life, oh, this is the life, yeah

When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, The Life by Hinder is a song that depicts a disillusioned and difficult life of chasing the glamor that eventually became empty and unfulfilling. The lyrics show the oppositions between the fantasized picture of the liberated life and the cruel truth of being alone and wretched inside, which leads to an idea that one could not be deceived through mere appearances and true happiness may not be found in the luxuries of life. Mostly, the life lyrics is about the emotions of a person, which include angst, reflection, despair, adventure, and freedom. Besides, the song is all about disillusionment, reality struggle, and the search for the actual thing. The words have the concept of disillusionment and reality being a hard place that might not be the best for the younger ones.
