Remember the years in elementary?
When everything was handled so simply
What to play was the only concern that I had
But now I'm just trying not to go mad
Remember when our minds were guilt free?
When we were all so naive
Those years were always so charming
But now I just feel guilty
Sitting in my room hearing the wind
Wishing I was something more than I could have been
Lately my life's gone nowhere
Everything is a nightmare
Staying up late with the rain
Falling asleep with the sun again
I wonder how long things will be
Broken apart until I'm willing
To try and separate reality
From its current state of wilting
Maybe someday I will see
How everything should have been
Remember those days back in middle school?
When everyone was trying to act cool
We all just wanted to be somebody new
It's so ironic that we were just fools
Now we stay up on Sundays
Drinking to forget the next day
Hoping that just maybe someday
Things will work out anyway
Remember the days when we were young?
Nobody cared where you came from
We all just played and had fun
But now we all hide from the sun
Not a dark thought bad crossed our minds
Now we're suicidal all the time
Wishing for the next day
Hoping things will turn out okay
