lyrics

every so often I get this strange feeling
it feels like a needle piercing my neck at the base
where my head meets my shoulder and I'm growing older
I'm getting more mature
I will leave this high school ghost town behind
leave it in my rear view mirror

everyone I know will move up northwest
and talk mad shit about the town I am living in
and I will lose contact with everyone I know
like Garret and Jared and Justin Breese

and honestly, it's making me happier than I ever though possible
I thought I left high school on broad street
looks like it followed me home
sideways glances talk shit get hit
he said she said, cheater secret
sideways glances talk shit get hit
he said she said, cheater secret

you're the gossip queen
petty princess of everything no one cared about
but they listen so closely
I was mr. mean I only did you wrong
sang songs about it and put them on youtube and facebook and twitter and soundcloud
screamed them at parties way too loud

and everyone I know will stay in town
and talk mad shit about the things I am singing
and I will lose contact with everyone I know
like Christine and Steven and Justin Breese

and honestly, it's making me happier than I ever though possible
I thought I left high school on broad street
looks like it followed me home
sideways glances talk shit get hit
he said she said, cheater secret
sideways glances talk shit get hit
he said she said, cheater secret

everything is turning into scream one two and three
different plot different characters but the same basic ending
everything is turning into scream one two and three
different plot different character but the same basic ending
everything is turning into scream one two and three
different plot different character but the same basic ending
everything is turning into scream one two and three
different plot different character but the same basic ending

the shaman of drinking my middle school crush
the way that I laugh when I'm doing drugs
and I know you'll never leave me
the stupidest reasons are the reasons I cry
but I held my tears when my papa died
and I know you'll never leave me
the shaman of drinking my middle school crush
the way that I laugh when I'm doing drugs
and I know you'll never leave me
the stupidest reasons are the reasons I cry
but I held my tears when my papa died
and I know you'll never leave me
the shaman of drinking my middle school crush
the way that I laugh when I'm doing drugs
and I know you'll never leave me
the stupidest reasons are the reasons I cry
but I held my tears when my papa died
and I know you'll never leave me
the shaman of drinking my middle school crush
the way that I laugh when I'm doing drugs
and I know you'll never leave me
the stupidest reasons are the reasons I cry
but I held my tears when my papa died
and I know you'll never leave me
