	Story Behind the Song This was the only poem I wrote in my creative writing class in college that my professor said DIDN'T sound like a song. In the end, it was the only poem from that class that I did turn into a song. Lyrics You sucked it up real bad this time I thought I'd let you know Mabe you should think before you breathe You drink too much on Friday nights You've nowhere left to go Maybe you should find your place to be You don't know what you're doing now You haven't worked for days You're wasting my time and you don't even try I know you more than anyone You better change your ways Because this lazy life is mine Prechorus: They say things change I don't care about it They say these days Maybe I should think about it Chorus: These days, These Days I get caught up in the hype Of wondering why and how I became Became, Became The kind of a guy That I sometimes despise You've lost your motivation now As if I had it You think you can reconcile the past You sit all day around the house With your hair all matted Maybe you should claim these days at last Prechorus Chorus If you're tired of life And a bit crazy And you're feeling high And a tad lazy You should hide in the eyes Of a random passerby Lie to yourself Lie to yourself Lie Chorus
