teenage talk

katie kept the list of times

now that she had really done it

done it

so we swarmed like flies

pretending that we weren't terrified to

we snuck out that night

rolled the chrysler down the driveway

but once we were inside

couldn't figure out where we were off to

that was before we had made

any terrible mistakes

well

that's just teenage talk

pinky swear that you won't go changing

drank so much that night

carved the state of texas in our forearms

you know i never loved you more

than when we were hiding from those sirens

sirens

oh

we laughed so hard

threw up in your mother's azaleas

that was before we had made

any terrible mistakes

that's just teenage talk

i don't think the past is better

better

just cause it's cased in glass

protecting us from our now and later

you know i never loved you more

than when we were running from those sirens

sirens

drank so much that night

carved the state of texas in our forearms

how do you see me now?

now that i'm a little bit older

older

nevermind the albatross

smoldering on my shoulder

shoulder

shoulder

shoulder
