I'm so glad I met you and I call you a friend
You'll get into trouble with me
But it's a good kind of rebellion
We'll talk quietly so they won't hear what we said
Plan our escape downtown 'cause they won't find us there
I know that it feels like no one hears you right now
But I speak your language and your thoughts will run wild
'Cause mine are yours
Have the same kind of naivety
You and I get weighed down by the things we can't do
Cryin' on my shoulder but honey I got you
We'll build up an empire that they can't invade
I'll forgive you for the silly mistakes
Worry when I don't see you on my lunch break
Askin' if you feel alright, you lie anyway
Stay after the party's ended, that's okay
I'll make sure you don't feel afraid
And on the drive home I whisper to you
In the backseat that my wrists are tingling
And I don't think I'mma make it
Will you talk quietly so they won't hear what I said?
Will you tell me it's okay to feel the way I'm feelin'?
You and I get weighed down by the things we can't do
Cryin' on my shoulder but honey I got you
We'll build up an empire that they can't invade
I'll forgive you for the silly mistakes
Worry when I don't see you on my lunch break
Asking if you feel alright, you lie anyway
Stay after the party's ended, that's okay
I'll make sure you don't feel afraid
Feel afraid
