The 80's Lyrics by ​The Symposium

Drugs

2014

[Verse 1]
You can go through life believing what you think
You can spend a lifetime believing it's a dream
Oh, I can wait around, I can sleep a week
I could spend a lifetime explaining to you these things
But you and I
We're meant to be
And now I know why
[Hook]
Now I know why
When you love me, you decided to lie
When you loved another person on a Saturday night
[Post-Chorus]
Now I know why
Now I know why
[Verse 2]
(I say) Hey, baby, you're wasting your time
(You say) that you'll go home with someone tonight
(Now I know) and now it's plain to see
Why every single person in the world is gonna hate me
(I say) No one ever wants someone who wants them all the time (You say) sometimes i love the way I feel but hate the thoughts that run inside my crooked mind
(Now I know) sometimes your life decides to unfold
And other times your life's just put on hold
