I made a list of all the friends that I never wanna see again
And I am sorry but your name fell below every single one of them
High school is over, and I've wasted too much time
Making sentences with words, just because they rhyme
You wouldn't smile if you knew how I felt about every single one of you
So stop, please, I wanna go home
But, if I do, I know these guys aren't gonna leave you alone
And it's my world that doesn't mean much
But I hate your friends and their influence
And I'm going crazy and I've lost my mind
But this basement scene's left me so far behind
Shut down, lose everything
Forget what you know, believe what you see
Now that it's over, things are a little bit awkward
Avoiding all the spots so I won't have to talk to her
And I'm sorry for playing the dickhead role
When all you ever really needed was a hand to hold
And I thought that you'd be the one thing that I could take home from all of this
I was wrong
So stop, please, I wanna go home
But, if I do, I know these guys aren't gonna leave you alone
And it's my world that doesn't mean much
But I hate your friends and their influence
And I'm going crazy and I've lost my mind
But this basement scene's left me so far behind
Shut down, lose everything
Forget what you know, believe what you see
Stop saying hi to all of your old friends
Learn to survive on only the new trends
Does anyone else think these girls are a little too young to be here?
They say face your fears, but I can't stop running
Stop telling jokes, 'cause they're not funny
I swore I wouldn't steal, but I need some money
I swore I wouldn't steal, but I need some money
(I need money, I need some money)
So stop, please, I wanna go home
But, if I do, I know these guys aren't gonna leave you alone
And it's my world that doesn't mean much
But I hate your friends and their influence
And I'm going crazy and I've lost my mind
But this basement scene's left me so far behind
Shut down, lose everything
Forget what you know, believe what you see
