This is a story from a long, long time ago and how it relates to my present day state of mind…

Way Back When
I walked out of high school the day I turned sixteen
Couldn’t wait one more day if you know what I mean
I lived outside that window I was wild as the wind that blows
I emptied out my locker and then I hit the road
I still feel like I did back then way down deep inside
The only problem I have now is I am so damn tired
I try to dial it back a bit use a little common sense
Cause I felt I could do anything Way back When
My friends got jobs or dove into the academic pool
And there I was out on the street looking like a fool
So I told a little white lie about the GED
And in a while I had my University degree
I still feel like I did back then way down deep inside
The only problem I have now is I am so damn tired
I try to dial it back a bit use a little common sense
Cause I felt I could do anything Way back When
