I need a break it's all the same
Under the sweet December rain
And just a crack of yellow light
To shine on my head

You'll find that I fought for the right
To laugh with my eyes till tears would fall
And the salt would hit my lips
With some love to help me survive, don't you want it?
I've never seen anyone who wants it this bad

And you said games were much more fun
I'd rather play than get things done
Well, look where we are now
Look where we are now

And you said games were much more fun
I'd rather play than get things done
Well, look where we are now
Look where we are now

So the pencils change to pens
I just want to hang out with my friends
We can give it our all
Time after time but it just keeps getting harder

And getting hotter to the touch, I need the hot and simple sun
I wanna just let go
With someone to help me survive, don't you want it?
I've never seen anyone who wants it this bad

And you said games were much more fun
I'd rather play than get things done
Well, look where we are now
Well, look where we are now

And you said life happens too fast
I'd rather play and make it last
Well, look where we are now
Well, look where we are now

I guess if I change up this direction we could
Start it all over, my dear, yeah
If I could just move in this direction we could, yeah

You said games were much more fun
I'd rather play than get things done
Well, look where we are now
Well, look where we are now

You said life happens too fast
I'd rather play and make it last
Well, look where we are now
Well, look where we are now, yeah

You said it, you said it
Games were much more fun
Well, look where we are now
