[Verse 1]

When will the days slow down

Just enough so I can get some rest and breathe

I swear I've been fallin' behind

And the person that could catch me wants to leave

[Pre-Chorus]

The girls I used to talk to now are gettin' married and having kids

Is everybody crazy or am I?

The few I keep in contact with are leaving pretty soon

Their goin' to work in tall buildings

[Chorus]

But can I go back

To the time when I was unable to worry

And can we go back

When the days seem like they weren't in such a hurry

But your life will move along even if you're being pulled

Please someone tell me that I'm doing fine

'Cause it feels like I'm running out of time

[Verse 2]

And how could you spend half your life

Doin' something only for a dime

I don't remember what it felt like

When the worlds weight wasn't on my mind

[Pre-Chorus]

And the aches I get from future plans is slowly killing me

Am I supposed to write my story on a paper with spilled ink?

And the few I keep in contact with are leaving pretty soon

Goin' to work in tall buildings

[Chorus]

But can I go back

To the time when I was unable to worry

And can we go back

When the days seem like they weren't in such a hurry

But your life will move along even if you're being pulled

Please someone tell me that I'm doing fine

'Cause it feels like I'm running out of time
