Lyrics Everclear – Aces

I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie
Good times and easy on the dark side
I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie
Bright light always looking for a better life

We were looking for each other
In the bars on the west side
We were looking for the summer
When it’s cold outside
This is gonna be good

Life is coming to aces
Everything is coming to aces
We found a way to make money
Out of broken boys and difficult girls
Reality is wonderful

We were working out
Waiting for the world to begin
Things are so much better now
I have good reason to wanna get wasted again

We were slumming for a bus in a new place
That used to be the old school
We were happy for the pain of being lame
Enough to wanna look cool
I really think that this is gonna be good

Life is coming to aces
Everything is coming to aces
We can make a good living out of broken lifes
And empty hearts

We were wasting time
Waiting for the world to begin
Things are so much better now

Black hole, white trash
There isn’t any limit to the shame these people have
Good people, bad things
Having sex with an ex in the bathroom on their wedding day

Pretty faces with no soul
And now you’re in the way
And nobody really wants to know
Big noise and a bright light
Everybody wants a chance to win themselves a better life
Everybody wants a better life
Everybody wants a better life
Everybody wants a better life
Everybody wants a better life
