Twenty Years

We were just children and grown up close

How we made it this far only god knows

We bend the rules

Smashed our cars

Played with fire and broke our heart

Somehow came out laughing through the tears

Sure don't seem like twenty years

Drove into the desert and tape some care

Fill into the circle just like square peg

Growing one add a flower tap

How to make it become a car

I still taste the scoff we never did

Sure don't seem like twenty years

Danny dies of aids

Ryan dies of loneliness

Ricky dies try to make that turn

For all of us survivors

Stop and remember

Those of us whose candles aren't burn anymore

For the classes that we ditched

For the precious stolen kiss

For the bridges that we burned

And the lessons that we learned

And the school lamp on the street

For the long eyes that we beat

And the stars that we wear

And the memories we share

Raise your glass up one more final cheer

Sure don't seem like twenty years

Sure don't feel like twenty years

Sure don't seem like twenty years
