Hey man think you hold my jacket?
I think I wanna dance tonight.
But find me before you go ,
I don't wanna ride home alone.
I was the new kid in a rich town Not a lot of friends around
I found the only other one in the neighborhood
Our bond was unbreakable. Some people change but we won't-
Be everything we could be
Cuz the pact that we made fit like cement shoes that looked good in our youth .
The waters up to our necks now ,
We Gotta get out.
I don't wanna be a souvenir. Got my own way to go
And I hope I see you there
When the smoke clears
The inside jokes in new inner circles
Outside our old haunts
Made an outsider out of me.
I saw how much it lit you up to beat me down
You fly me like a fighter kite
I wish you'd cut my line and make it right .
But, I'm the crutch and I'm the sprain it's a complex duality.
There's poison in the words you use.
I grew up excluded and you press on the bruise.
There's a breeze I feel within me ,
And it's taking me to places that you'd never believe.
But I won't be everything that I could be. And I won't be everything that I should.
I don't wanna be a souvenir I've got my own way to go
And I hope I see you there
I don't wanna be your trophy deer
Let go my rein and I'd remain
I don't wanna be your souvenir
