[Verse 1]
Yesterday you were on my back just to get my time
I guess it's not as precious as it seems
Because I found the time for hanging out and talking on the phone
What should I expect, now that my time is free
And you're nowhere to be found

[Chorus]
Next time I'll try
For the first time in my life
It won't pass me by
Procrastinate it can wait, I put it off
Let's start today
Let's start today

[Verse 2]
My room's a mess and I can't get dressed
I gotta be out by eight o'clock
Deep inside I know the answer (I know the answer)
Well there's no time like the present
And I'd like to hang out but who doesn't
I've made enough mistakes for this lifetime
Now I'm here to make amends

[Chorus]
Next time I'll try
For the first time in my life
It won't pass me by
Procrastinate it can wait, I put it off
Let's start today
Let's start today

(Start!)

[Chorus]
Next time I'll try
For the first time in my life
It won't pass me by
Procrastinate it can wait, I put it off
Let's start today
Let's start today

(Start!)

Fall Out Boy

Fall Out Boy is an American rock band hailing from Wilmette, Illinois. The band was formed in 2001 by Pete Wentz, who supplies bass and lyrics to the band, and guitarist Joe Trohman, who both used to be part of metalcore band Arma Angelus. Trohman later recruited vocalist Patrick Stump, who initially tried out as the band’s drummer, after meeting him in a bookstore. After the release of Project Rocket/Fall Out Boy, a split EP with Project Rocket. It was recorded without current drummer Andy Hurley due to him being disinterested in the project; Hurley later joined in 2003 as a replacement touring drummer.

Fueled By Ramen, who were a small independent label at the time, personally called Fall Out Boy to ask them to record a full-length record after hearing one of their demos online. This album became their 2003 debut, Take This To Your Grave, and was a tipping point between the band’s underground success to success in the mainstream. It was the band’s last album to feature Stump as the lead lyricist.

The band’s 2004 acoustic EP, My Heart Will Always Be the B-Side to My Tongue, became their first charting release and gave fans a taste of what to expect on their sophomore album From Under The Cork Tree. The album creation was set back in February 2005 after Wentz’s suicide attempt, which influenced songs such as “7 Minutes In Heaven (Atavan Halen).” The album was released in May 2005 through Island Records, featuring guest vocals from William Beckett of The Academy Is… and Brendon Urie of Panic! At The Disco.
