"18" lyrics

It took so long for him to find out
What she did was wrong
She took his heart and turned it inside out
And when the morning comes, you'll have to face them all
I told you so's, you should have known you know
You should've known right from the start

They try to make you walk away
But there's no faith in what they say
Because they're so far from 18, 18, 18, 18
They think they know it all but they forgot it had a herd, to herd, to herd

She's nothing standing in the rain
She's not waiting for, another reason to keep waiting for, the perfect storm
And now she's laughing while she's crying, cause she's trying not to show
The smile that she has learned to fake

They try to make you walk away
But there's no faith in what they say
Because they're so far from 18, 18, 18, 18
They think they know it all but they forgot it had a herd

Knowing only, knowing, knowing only that there are 18 rules with 18 lies and 18 years of compromise
For everytime I've heard you say you're only 18, anyway
You're only 18, anyway

They try to make you walk away
But there's no faith in what they say
Because they're so far from 18, 18
They think they know it all but they forgot it had a herd, to herd, to herd
