HBO Lyrics

I didn't want to be the one to break the news

I didn't want to be the one to have to tell you

But here it goes

Life isn't a TV show

Yeah this isn't HBO

You might not get the girl

You might not change the world

But that doesn't make this useless

No please don't lose heart yet

Can you do something for me

Please don't give up

Just change your expectations

People are just people

There's not always an explanation

And I'm sorry if that sucks

And it doesn't sit quite right

I don't love it either

But it's all we've got tonight

So maybe you should turn off your phone for just a minute

It's a pretty big world and sometimes it's nice to just live in it

Find a way to get your kicks

It can't always be like Netflix

You might not get your big break

You might have to work hard every day

I think you'll make it either way

So please just stay

Can you do something for me

Please don't give up

Just change your expectations

People are just people

There's not always an explanation

And I'm sorry if that sucks

And it doesn't sit quite right

I don't love it either

But it's all we've got tonight

And you never know who might stay

So you should learn to love yourself

And I know it can be scary

When it's just you and no one else

But I think you've got this

Yeah I think you'll make it if you

Do something for me

Please don't give up

Just change your expectations

People are just people

There's not always an explanation

And I'm sorry if that sucks

And it doesn't sit quite right

I don't love it either

But it's all we've got tonight

Yeah it's all we've got tonight
