Alex Maxwell - Thought We Were Lyrics

We were the runners
Running this town, and running these streets
In our hand-me-down four runners
We were the breakers
Breaking the law, and breaking momma's hearts
Thought our bad attitudes made us tougher
We talked a big game, but earned us a name
As them boys that hell must've raised

We were small towners, heartbreakers, all nighters, risk takers
So sure that we knew it all
We touchdowners, loud-mouthers, Hank cranking get downers
Damn right we weren't ever wrong
We thought we were tough
Thought we couldn't be touched
Talked us all up so much
But we'll never be cool as we thought we were
Yeah, thought we were

We were the lovers
In the backseats saying words we didn't mean
Playing it cool in the heat of the summer
We were the fighters
Fighting for respect, or fighting some hot head
That mouthed off to one of our brothers

We were small towners, heartbreakers, all nighters, risk takers
So sure that we knew it all
We touchdowners loud-mouthers, Hank cranking get downers
Damn right we weren't ever wrong
We thought we were tough
Thought we couldn't be touched
Talked us all up so much
But we'll never be cool as we thought we were

We were small towners, heartbreakers, all nighters, risk takers
So sure that we knew it all
We touchdowners loud-mouthers, Hank cranking get downers
Damn right we weren't ever wrong
We thought we were tough
Thought we couldn't be touched
Talked us all up so much
But we'll never be cool as we thought we were
Yeah, thought we were
