"18" lyrics

You were going out to bars
Driving nice cars
I was on mars
Thinking you were mine

Every single weekend
I would pretend
I was like you
Dressing up to the nines

And we'd go out to the restaurant
Where people knew your name
You're picture's on the wall it's
Like you're in the hall of fame
You loved attention
But never mentioned me

Sometimes I wonder why
You still keep me up at night
Then I think of how I cried
And it gets to me
So

Yeah I'm in my 20's
Saying fuck you and your city
On a green line T
Middle finger up to every fancy street
Where the buildings scream your name

Cause back when I was 18
You were acting like you loved me in a matte black jeep
Only for a moment then rejected me
So I do these crazy things
To give peace
To eighteen year old me

Oh she deserved better
She deserved better
She deserved better

You were in and out of town
Then you'd want me back around
Every single time I stayed

Spending every weekend
Off the deep-end
Never knowing if you're gonna walk away

And you'd show up at the party
You knew I was going to
There was no going out
'Less I was going out with you
You'd tell me that you love me and there was nobody else
Just so you could have me to yourself

Yeah I'm in my 20's
Saying fuck you and your city
On a green line T
Middle finger up to every fancy street
Where the buildings scream your name

Cause back when I was 18
You were acting like you loved me in a matte black jeep
Only for a moment then rejected me
So I do these crazy things
To give peace
To eighteen year old me

You didn't care how you hurt me
Mr. twisting your words, please
I deserved
I deserved better

Than being lost in confusion
In a game I was losing
I deserved
I deserved better
So can you blame me?

For being in my 20's
Saying fuck you and your city
On a green line T
Middle finger up to every fancy street
Where the buildings scream your name

Cause back when I was 18
You were acting like you loved me in a matte black jeep
Only for a moment then rejected me
So I do these crazy things
To give peace
To eighteen year old me

Yeah she deserved better
She deserved better
She deserved better
Eighteen year old me
Yeah she deserved better
She deserved better
She deserved better
Eighteen year old me
