School Kids

Did we have to travel all of this way?

To get to where we started and have nothing to say

If I could go back all those years ago

When we were still school kids and we had nowhere to go

Remember how we’d dream with blue eyes open wide

The days and nights of rambling across the great divide

If I could go back all those years ago

When we were still school kids and all the places we’d go

Oh but time is on your side

you don’t need anybody holding you

Telling you what to do

When your wants become a crutch and your perception starts to skew

And you’re too young to be so weary and it’s so easy to be blue

Would you still go back all those years ago

When we were still school kids are we where we’d want to go?

Oh but time is on your side

you don’t need anybody holding you

Telling you what to do

The same old fear, year after year

Dreams disappear along with your friends you used to know

I can feel the walls closing in

I feel the end begin

We’ve spun our wheels all over this town

Only to come back around

With a different song but the same sound

Did we have to travel all of this way?

To get to where we started and have nothing to say

If I could go back all those years ago

When we were still school kids and we had nowhere to go
