[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
