16, lot on her mind
gotta few friends left the rest behind 
but guess that's just want happens,
people change
stressed out but its always "fine" 
they be asking but she can't describe 
Maybe, they're right, it all be fixed with age


Hate that you've been saying i'm dramatic 
Immature because i just don't wanna talk 
you ever think that you might be overreacting?
promise i'm thinking, overthinking quite a lot


They say we're crazy and useless, making stupid excuses 
to go make bad decisions when we're hurt
and we're not crazy romantics but we still know what a heart is and know that when its cracked it really burns.

oh we know more than what we tell you put into words and we don't cry because we want to but you'll assume it's because she's another 16 year old girl

high school's been a terrifying one she thinks she wont ever find someone to build her back when she's in pieces and pieces again let's not forget about the one's who go run their mouths to stay relevant and not miss out
