It was different back then Anything could happen Ideas as big as your fantasies could imagine Children practicing that's part of getting older Impatiently waiting for time to move forward  Optimistic youngins running on adrenaline At the center of the universe begging for your attention Making a difference meant looking important No heroes were made that day How unfortunate Came and went like adolescence Took our wind and left us restless Now we want the wind that kept us alive and feeling refreshed They said it was of the essence To us time wasn't precious There it goes now try and catch it Watch it go  Focus Focus Don't miss a thing Wide-eyed open Don't miss a thing Can you afford your ambitions When we arrive we'll start living  Wow, how awful the first time it felt impossible And the world around me was no longer wonderful I can't give back your influence Perspective is hard to undo Thank you for the experience...  Here's some anxiety to keep you company As you waste your energy trying to build your legacy Tell me what more can a man do than eat, drink, and enjoy his toil I want to be casual but taking it easy is too stressful Anticipation now a days looks a lot more like anxious Time killed away our imaginations We used to escape into fantasies and fairytales Now we medicate  How do you feel?
