"Wait, just hang on a sec!"
I scream, but it gets me nowhere
I put all my strength into being afraid of
The limits that just kept on closing in

Reality is merciless
And time is especially tricky
It's like someone's snatching away the blanket I just can't sleep without

We laughed and fretted
Over silly things, nonsensical things
Once the final bell rings out
The fun times will be over, too

Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of lessons shoved into bags
Like always, like it's "see you tomorrow."
Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of happenings
If you've made me an adult, don't be showing me tears
Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of memories
Even if I grow up some more
They still won't fade a bit
