Teenage Talk

Katie kept the list of times

Now that she had really done it, done it

So we swarmed like flies

Pretending how we weren't terrified

Till we snuck out that night

Rolled a Chrysler down the drive

But once we were inside

Couldn't figure out where we were off to

That was before we had made

Any terrible mistakes

But that's just teenage talk

Pinky swear like 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 mothers azaleas

That was before we had made

Any terrible mistakes

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 hiding 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?

Now remind my albatross

Smoldering on my shoulder, shoulder, shoulder, shoulder
