I miss the old days
The ones that I would spend in the highest of states
When I would listen to music so peacefully
Not giving a fuck of what people might think
But things have changed & I can’t act that way
But ask me if I would go back if I could
Oh trust me I would
In a heart beat
But this ain't no wish granting machine
I miss the old days
Putting a bottle on my lips
Not even caring about what time it is
Laying down in the back of the car
Listening to really loud music
Going around the city, just cruising
I miss the old days
Going to from party to party
Sorry mom, just kidding
I ain’t sorry
I ain’t no barbie
I miss the old days
When I would do all the things adults hate that we do
We need to be more mature
We need to get ready for the future
I guess these words got to me
& now I wish I could go back & live the life that I wanted instead of this bullshit
We’re all not satisfied with our lives anyway
So why spend it miserable all the time ey?
I’m not about to just live a “normal” life like ya’ll say
I want to live my life like the good old days
The ones that I would spend in the highest of states
When I would listen to music so peacefully
Not giving a fuck of what people might think
But things have changed & I can’t act that way
But ask me if I would go back if I could
Oh trust me I would
In a heart beat
But this ain't no wish granting machine
I miss the old days
Putting a bottle on my lips
Not even caring about what time it is
Laying down in the back of the car
Listening to really loud music
Going around the city, just cruising
I miss the old days
Going to from party to party
Sorry mom, just kidding
I ain’t sorry
I ain’t no barbie
I miss the old days
When I would do all the things adults hate that we do
We need to be more mature
We need to get ready for the future
I guess these words got to me
& now I wish I could go back & live the life that I wanted instead of this bullshit
We’re all not satisfied with our lives anyway
So why spend it miserable all the time ey?
I’m not about to just live a “normal” life like ya’ll say
I want to live my life like the good old days

Growing pains are more than physical and the ones that are not physical are often the most painful of all. Eventually age forces you to let go of the good old day weather or not you are willing to leave them in the past. I can't tell you how many times I have wished I was 17 again. I wrote a poem about that when I was about 25 and here I am more than twice that age remembering the good old days and wishing I could go back before the reality of responsibility took over my life and I left my youth behind. There's no going back, so enjoy life with every step you take at every stage you find yourself living... jj

Poetryman's right on. I just wish I could live my life to the fullest. Working on it. I really enjoyed "untitled", and respect your decision not to go the normal route. It's a bore.
