Way Back When


Way back when, when life was fun

Now I look at my life and only see glum.

Way back when,thinking about college was always my favortie time of day

Now I'm asking myself how I'm going to pay

Way back when, when life didn't seem so hard

Now I'm 17 years old and don't even own a car.

Way back when, when life was so funny

Now my mom doesn't even care that I have a hurt tummy.

Way back when, when I was affraid of the edge

Now all I really want is some money for college.
