Your parents climbed the stairs
Say goodnight, say goodnight don't stay up late
You leaned your head on my shoulder
Your teenage girl can knows everything
This is the best night of my dumb life
Is It yours too?
I've thought about this moment, I think that I love you
The clothes between moving bodies
(Slip them to the floor)
We pause to listen for footsteps
(I laid there staring at the door)
But God himself didn't stop me or stop the heart inside my chest
(It felt like we weren't alone)
This is the way the world was lost
When you leave with your thoughts of moments that you had
All the questions creep in, ones that you never asked
Does the change age your days?
Lost your way you should have stayed
You have to save your soul
It's best to do what you are told
Forget the life you know
Get back, get back into the fold
Two weeks and I swore you off, just the word and my thoughts
We'll be better next time, I promise you
You can trust me to see it through
They say He hates us for this
I can't pray away the weakness
We lie about our wants and needs
But both can bring you to your knees
Everyone a virgin
Everyone a victim
We practice all the words and celebrate the wisdom
Everyone their version
Everyone the system
Our sins creep up and spill out from years of bad decisions
Our bodies inside
Our bodies aren't our own
Take care what you hide
Some things can't be shown
Our bodies changing
Our bodies age and die
I tried stopping myself, but that's just another lie
