I'm waiting for the world to change But everything just stays the same And nothing ever turns out right No matter how much I've tried Feels like time isn't on my side That's right (Remember what your parents said) Dad would say that life is hard (It won't be easy, so please believe me) Mom said it would break my heart (I can't protect you, it's gonna hurt you) Sometimes (sometimes) I almost break down and want to cry (Wonder why, wonder why) I'm still alive (Remember what your parents said) Mom said it's time to settle down (Don't be so silly and start a family) Dad said stop being such a clown (Despite what you say, you'll grow up someday) Sometimes (sometimes) I don't know why I even try (Can't decide, can't decide) Is this my life?
