Here are the lyrics and how the song goes:

VERSES:
A thought burst in my head
and I need to tell you
what's new that I forthought
was it just a dream
that happened long ago?
I think I just forgot

PRE-CHORUS:
Well it hasn't been the first time
and it sure does drive me mad
that's why I say

CHORUS:
There's a boy who fogs his world and now he's gettin' lazy
there's no motivation and frustration makes him crazy
he makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sittin'
someone help him up or he is gonna end up quittin'

VERSES:
I shuffle through my mind
to see if I get by
the words I left behind
was it just a dream
that happened long ago?
oh well nevermind

PRE-CHORUS
