Take me back thirteen
Gushers on that rusty swing
Sandbox little fling
Rearrange the old boxspring
With my head in the clouds
Something I miss 'bout the sound
Of it all
Adolescence comes with a price
Learning from my current vices
Long nights, tired eyes
Tell me why I'm indecisive
With my mind running miles
Take me right back to the times
They were simple
Comments and caffeine are all that I have
Taxes and heartbreak, they cut me in half
One thing I know
Is that I miss what I had
But growing up doesn't have to be this bad
Growing up doesn't have to be so sad
Take me back sixteen
Couch surfing with a big dream
Secondhand faded jeans
We were something good, weren't we?
Just some kids running wild
Something so sweet 'bout the sound
Of it all
No need to live in past tense
I look around and see my best friends
Peace of mind
By design
We got time before this all ends
Take a seat
Red eyes
A supersonic ride for the times
They're still simple, yeah
Comments and caffeine are all that I have
Taxes and heartbreak, they cut me in half
One thing I know
Is that I miss what I had
But growing up doesn't have to be this bad
Growing up doesn't have to be so sad
