Remember when I could barely believe in it?

Staring up at the ceiling fan, nothing ever would happen then

Now, look at where we are now, whether if you believed in it

Everything from the ceiling fan suddenly became different.

So I'm setting up everything in the living room

Headed into the promised land

Maybe everything that I need is everything I already had

Held it in the palm of my hand

Everything from the ceiling fan is gonna have to be different.

But way back when, in my days

It was so different, not as crazy

Now, all I see are just mindless creatures

And everybody wants something else, something more

They want less of me keeping score

And I can't keep up, looking over my shoulder.

If only I could just see myself, thought I'd believe it

Thought I'd be somebody else by now

By now, by now.

Remember when I was barely beginning it?

Holding on to the feeling, if somebody was just listening

Then everything would be better now

I keep looking for something else to feel the way I already felt

Before it all became different.

Oh, but way back when, in my days

It was so different, not as crazy

Now, all I see are just mindless creatures

And everybody wants something else, something more

They want less of me keeping score

And I can't keep up from looking over my shoulder.

If only I could just see myself, thought I'd believe it

Thought I'd be somebody else by now

By now, by now

By now.

If I take my time, would it go away?

I could see myself like it was yesterday

Yeah, I was just eighteen with a fuzzy brain

What am I doing here?

If only I could just see myself, thought I'd believe it

Thought I'd be somebody else by now

Oh, now, now, I feel it, oh, now, now, I feel it

Oh, now, now, I feel it, oh, now, now, I feel it

Oh, now, now, I feel it, okay, now, now, I feel it

Oh, now, now, I feel it, oh, now, now, I feel it

Oh, now, now, I feel it, oh, now, now, I feel it.

'cause way back when, in my days

It was so different, not as crazy

Now, all I see are just mindless creatures

And everybody wants something else, something more

They want less of me keeping score

And I can't keep up from looking over my shoulder.

If only I could just see myself, thought I'd believe it

Thought I'd be somebody else by now

By now, by now.
