bringing it in, but not forgetting...

Passed out on the overpass Sunday best and broken glass Broken down from the bikes and bars Suspended like spirits over speeding cars You and me were kings over the parkway tonight And tonight will go on forever while we walk around this town like we own the streets and stay awake through summer like we own the heat Singing "everybody wake up (wake up) it's time to get down" (everybody, everybody wake up its time to get down) And when I pass the bottle back to Pete on the overpass tonight, I bet we laugh I'm gonna stay eighteen forever (cut me open) So we can stay like this forever (sun poisoned) And we'll never miss a party (this offer...)cause we keep them going constantly (...stands forever)And we'll never have to listen (new haircut) to anyone about anything (new bracelet) cause it's all been done and it's all been said (eyeliner) we're the coolest kids and we take what we can getThe hell out of this town Find some conversation The low fuel lights been on for days It doesn't mean anything I've got another 500, 'nother 500 miles before we shut this engine down, we shut it down I'm gonna stay eighteen forever (cut me open) So we can stay like this forever (sun poisoned) And we'll never miss a party (this offer...)cause we keep them going constantly (...stands forever)And we'll never have to listen (new haircut) to anyone about anything (new bracelet) cause it's all been done and it's all been said (eyeliner) we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get (wait forever) (you're just jealous cause I'm young and in love) Eighteen forever (first kisses)(your stomach's filled up but you're starved for conversation) So we can stay like this forever (new stitches)(you're spending all your nights growing old in your bed) And we'll never miss a party (collar weekend)(and your tearin up your photos cause you wanna forget... it's over) cause we keep them going constantly (appearance ticket)(you're just jealous cause I'm young and in love) And we'll never have to listen (November to...)(your stomach's filled up but you're starved for conversation) to anyone about anything cause it's all been done (...remember)(you're spending all your nights growing old in your bed) and it's all been said (nightswimmers)(and your tearin up your photos cause you wanna forget... it's over) we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get Just jealous cause we're young and in love You're just jealous cause we're young and in love You're just jealous cause we're young and in love You're just jealous cause we're young and in love You're just jealous cause we're young and in love You're just jealous...
(To the kids who pounded the street with me. To the kids who spent hours in coffee shops, at the beach or in parking lots. To the kids with whom we shared our insecurities and passions. To the "coolest kids who have taken what they could get" and to the ones who refuse to settle. To those nights with acoustic guitars...and to those nights with mindblowing bands. To not feeling comfortable but sticking around anyway. To camping and the universe. To my best friends, yeah that probably means you too. To adventures and that fortress we have yet to claim. To theset, haha, theset. To my parents who raised me and to the lyrics that brought me up. To the guys and girls. To drunkenly "swinging life away" and "winging it" sober. Love. Empowerment. Hope. Strength. Health. How things have evolved from tasting ink to floating on, this isn't just time to pretend to pass out on the overpass, this is the first day of your life.....Hello next year, hello the beautiful ppl i have met and the ones who still stick by me. Hello more changes and more knowledge! I welcome the new song that will shape this, my 19th year. Hello opportunities and love....)
