"You're On Your Own, Kid" lyrics

Summer went away, still
The yearning stays
I play it cool
With the best of them

I wait patiently
He's gonna notice me
It's okay
We're the best of friends

Anyway
I hear it in your voice
You're smoking with your boys
I touch my phone as
If it's your face

I didn't choose this town
I dream of getting out
There's just one
Who could make me stay
All my days

From sprinkler splashes to
Fireplace ashes
I waited ages to see you there
I search the party
Of better bodies
Just to learn that you
Never cared
You're on your own, kid
You always have been

I see the great escape
So long, Daisy May
I picked the petals
He loves me not
Something different bloomed
Writing in my room
I play my songs
In the parking lot
I'll run away

From sprinkler splashes
To fireplace ashes
I called a taxi
To take me there
I search the party
Of better bodies
Just to learn
That my dreams aren't rare
You're on your own, kid
You always have been

You're on your own
You're on your own
You're on your own
You're on your own

From sprinkler splashes
To fireplace ashes
I gave my blood, sweat
And tears for this
I hosted parties
And starved my body
Like I'd be saved
By a perfect kiss
The jokes weren't funny
I took the money
My friends from home
Don't know what to say
I looked around
In a blood-soaked gown
And I saw something they
Can't take away
'Cause there were pages
Turned with the bridges burned
Everything you
Lose is a step you take
So
Make the friendship bracelets
Take the moment and taste it
You've got no reason
To be afraid

You're on your own, kid
(You're on your own)
Yeah, you can face this
(You're on your own)
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
