I, I wish it was 2004
I wish my favorite bands were still on tour
And I wish everything wasn't so complicated
I, I wish I was still as tall as the markings on the kitchen wall
Wish I could gain back the confidence that they created
Lately, things haven't been the best for me.
I know, you think, it's all in my head
I'm crazy for wondering what its all for
But everyday I'm thinking of ways for someone to come and take me away
And say "we're going back to 2004"

I, I never had it all quite figured out
I never really learned what growing up was all about
And I still don't know
And there are so many things that I wish I could say I've done
To say that time flies when you're having fun
Does time only fly when you're young?
Lately, things haven't been the best for me
I know, you think, its all in my head
I'm crazy, for wondering what its all for
But everyday I'm thinking of ways for someone to come and take me away
And say "we're going back to 2004"
Looking back on it I know that I am fortunate and I cannot complain
The nerves, the stress, the total mess that's all inside my brain
But growing up just makes me really really really scared
And I don't think that I'm prepared
I, I wish it was 2004
I wish my childhood was still in store
And I wish everything wasn't so, so complicated
Lately, things haven't been the best for me
I know, you think that its all, in my head
And I must be crazy, for wondering what it's all for
But everyday I'm thinking of ways for someone to come and take me away
And say "we're going back to two thousand-"
Yeah everyday I'm thinking of ways for someone to come and take me away
And say "we're going back to 2004"
