I was eighteen, living in a daydream I always thought I'd have it all my way Couldn't change me, nobody could make me Be somebody I don't wanna be And the times can't change me Won't become a dull boy, all work no play I was eighteen, now I'd probably hate me I didn't think I'd see 28 I've been going back in time on lockdown I remember mama cried when I dropped out And the look in dad's eyes when I got locked up Just another memory that I blocked out But you can't be everything to everyone all of the time So sick of spending every day alone inside my mind I was eighteen, living in a daydream I always thought I'd have it all my way Couldn't change me, nobody could make me Be somebody I don't wanna be And the times can't change me Won't become a dull boy, all work no play I was eighteen, now I'd probably hate me I didn't think I'd see 28 So what do you expect of me? I've gotta be myself I thought the drugs would be the death of me I put myself through hell I always thought I knew what's best for me But that's a story only time will tell So what do you expect of me? I never let it get to me
