Seventeen, smoking weed at your parents' house
They never really cared about anything
But your little brother's whereabouts
And I guess they cared a fair amount about you
I guess I did too
Twenty one in the back of an old dive
The twist of a dull knife
Oh, it hurts but I love it at the same time
I find you in the pain I feel
That's how you know it's real
Lights low
The look on your face
You can't find no reason to stay
Let the time slow and mean what you say to me now
Honey dry those tears as they race
Through your eyes closed
It pains me to say it but I know
That we'll never make it too far
Could it be who we are?
Oh, it seems lookin' mean at the world around
Has blinded me to what I've found
Only now I've come to learn it's gonna bring you down
I'm only gonna bring you down too
It's just what I do
Lights low
The look on your face you can't find no reason to stay
Let the time slow and mean what you say to me now
Honey dry those tears as they race through your eyes closed
It pains me to say it but I know
We'll never make it too far
Could it be who we are?
