Green day 16 lyrics

Every night I dream the same dream 

Of getting older all the time 

I ask you now, what does this mean? 

Are these problems just in my mind? 

Things are easy when you're a child 

But now these pressures have dropped on my head 

The length I've gone are just long miles 

Would they be shorter if I were dead 



Every time I look in my past 

I always wish I was there 

I wish my youth would forever last 

Why are these times so unfair 



Look at my friends and see what they've done 

Ask myself why they had to change 

I like them better when they were young 

Now all these times are rearranged 

I look down and stand there and cry 

Nothing ever will be the same 

The sun is rising, now I ask why? 

The clouds now fall and here comes the rain 



Every time I look in my past 

I always wish I was there 

I wish my youth would forever last 

Why are these times so unfair 



Every night I dream the same dream 

Of getting older all the time 

I ask you now, what does this mean? 

Are these problems just in my mind? 

Things are easy when you're a child 

But now these pressures have dropped on my head 

The length I've gone are just long miles 

Would they be shorter if I were dead 



Every time I look in my past 

I always wish I was there 

I wish my youth would forever last 

Why are these times so unfair
