lyrics

i was sixteen, you were fifteen
a christmas tree showed up in the cafeteria and i sat at your lunchtable

i was seventeen, you were sixteen
we were both in a school play, you were faster in cross country

i always thought you'd be by my side, i always thought you'd be in my life

i was eighteen, you were seventeen
we were both falling in love for the first time

now i'm 25, crying in the bathroom
looking at pictures online, that i took of you

i always thought you'd be by my side, i always thought you'd be in my life
i always thought you'd be by my side, i always thought you'd be in my life

the older i get, i'm more comfortable using scissors
the older i get i'm more comfortable, using scissors even when i don't want to
i don't want to
it hurts me too, it hurts me too
it hurts me too
