Lyrics

every night i dream the same dream, of getting older and older all the time, i ask you now, what does this mean?, are these problems just in my mind?, things are easy when you're a child, but now these pressures have dropped on my head, the length i've gone are just long miles, would they be shorter if i were dead?, every time i look in my past, i always wish i was there, i wish my youth would forever last, why are these times so unfair?, look at my friends and see what they've done, ask myself why they've had to change, i like them better when they were young, now all these times are rearranged, i look down and stand there and cry, nothing ever will be the same, the sun is rising, now i ask why?, the clouds now fall and here comes the rain, every time i look in my past, i always wish i was there, i wish my youth would forever last, why are these times so unfair?, every night i dream the same dream, of getting older and older all the time, i ask you now, what does this mean?, are these problems just in my mind?, things are easy when you're a child, but now these pressures have dropped on my head, the length i've gone are just long miles, would they be shorter if i were dead?, every time i look in my past, i always wish i was there, i wish my youth would forever last, why are these times so unfair?
