Are you worried you're a little bit late to the party?
Do you feel like an apple that's lost its shine?
Has it been a little while since you had a solid win?
Are you wondering why you keep on trying?
I wanna be back in High School
I wanna feel like it's all in front of me
You know I used to be beautiful?
Skin and bone and crooked teeth
I wanna feel like I'm 18
I wanna get drunk and go have sex, just like we do now, but in less debt
Are you worried that you've run out of second chances
Are you maybe a calendar that's one day off and one year wrong?
Did you miss a bus that you didn't realize you were waiting for?
Are you sick of everyday feeling older and older and older and older
I wanna be back in High School
I wanna feel like it's all in front of me
You know I used to be beautiful?
Skin and bone and crooked teeth
I wanna feel like I'm 18
I wanna do drugs that change my brain, just like we do now, but in less pain
I sat around in a local bar
And listened to two men I just men reminisce about the friends
They've lost to booze and drugs and death
I drive around in a battered car and listen to voices all around
Singing about youth like they can keep the sun from going down
I wanna be back in High School
I wanna feel like it's all in front of me
You know I used to be beautiful?
Skin and bone and crooked teeth
I wanna feel like I'm 18
I wanna pretend that I'm alright, just like we do now, but with more time
