"Sixteen" lyrics

"Sixteen"

Marry me for kicks, you try, it's how it is
It ain't no way to live all alone
Timing doesn't wait for tomorrow's better days
It's all the same, it's all the same, just you wait and see
You're coming with me, coming with me, free

Mascara runs fast, but you can't catch feelings
Screaming, it'll never last, you're the last one breathing
Last one breathing, population of
And you're falling apart, falling apart, oh
For having a heart, having a hard time
Letting it go, letting it go, no
Never, never
Never, never
Never, never

How could it come so far?
How did we lose it all to make sense
To make me pretend I was happy with you
With you, babe?
I can't take it there, I swear
But if you go, then I'll meet you, yeah, I'll meet you right
We'll make it out of here
Or we'll die

Mascara runs fast, but you can't catch feelings
Screaming, it'll never last, you're the last one breathing
Last one breathing, population of
And you're falling apart, falling apart, oh
For having a heart, having a hard time
Letting it go, letting it go, no
Never, never

And it don't stop till it won't stop
And you can't breathe
And you can't find anybody to believe the words you say aren't crazy
Prom queen at sixteen, and you couldn't have made such a scene
And it's pure coincidence, the girl with the man of your dreams is getting out of here

And you're falling apart, falling apart
For having a hard time
Letting it go, letting it go, no
Never, never
Letting it go, letting it go, no
Never, never
Letting it go, letting it go, no
Never, never
