[Verse 1]
Katie kept the list of times
Now that she had really done it, done it
So we swarmed like flies
Pretending that we weren't terrified

[Verse 2]
'Til we snuck out that night
Rolled the Chrysler down the driveway
But once we were inside
Couldn't figure out where we were off to

[Hook]
That was before we had made
Any terrible mistakes

[Verse 3]
Well, that's just teenage talk
Pink swear that you won't go changing
Drank so much that night
Carved the state of Texas in our forearms

[Verse 4]
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 mom's azaleas

[Hook]
That was before we had made any terrible mistakes
That was before we had made any terrible mistakes

[Bridge]
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

[Outro]
How do you see me now?
Now that I'm a little bit older, older
Nevermind the albatross
Smoldering on my shoulder, shoulder
Shoulder, shoulder
