I used to smile without a cause,
i used to play with no need for applause,
i used to be able to wake up bright and early,
around the same time i was picked on with swirley's,
i had no idea what was ahead for me back then,
now all i wish is to go back when,
life was simple, had no worries,
before all the pain and written stories,
back when i was an artist, perfecting my skill,
if i could go back i'd make sure i will,
never stop drawing no matter what i think,
all those years wasted in a blink,
back when i never knew any of the girls i miss,
when i never feared a lie whispered after a kiss,
holding it all in and hoping won't turn back time,
take my advice, believe me i have tried.
