Intro: I'm making plans to pass the time I write these songs, they seldom rhyme I used to quit, but now I smoke This life's the only one I know I've got some friends I never see I wait but nothing's happening I asked you if you felt the same You know the rules; won't play the game If I woke up now from a life-long dream I'd make sure to write it down Cause I'd like to think that I've learned some things Though it's too late now I've watched my days turn into nights I've seen the city, but not the sights I've broken hearts, so mine won't break I try to learn from my mistakes I learned my lines, I'll play my part I love the ending, but I don't know where to start So if you're looking for someone to lead Don't follow me --Chorus-- Solo: So I won't sleep; I will not hide It's time to follow my advice And when it's time to pay dues I'll let my life be my excuse --Chorus-- SOLO 2:
