[Verse 1]
The only color you wear is black
'Cause some girl at school said you look fat
The boy you like doesn't like you back
But it won't always be like that
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't say it all gets better
But fifteen doesn't last forever
[Chorus]
If high school me could see me now
I bet high school me would be so proud
She'd find out the cool kids, they ain't everything
The world is so much bigger than her town
If high school me could see me now
[Verse 2]
You drink just 'cause you think you should
But it never makes you feel that good
And you gave away your innocence
Only 'cause he talked you into it
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't say it all gets better
But fifteen doesn't last forever
[Chorus]
If high school me could see me now
I bet high school me would be so proud
She'd find out the cool kids, they ain't everything
The world is so much bigger than her town
If high school me could see me now
[Post-Chorus]
See me now, wish she could see me now
See me now, see me now
See me now, wish she could see me now
See me now, see me now
[Chorus]
If high school me could see me now
I bet high school me would be so proud
She'd find out the cool kids, they ain't everything
The world is so much bigger than her town
If high school me could see it then
I bet she'd feel better in her skin
She'd begin to see the things that all go wrong
Are things that she'll be writing songs about
If high school me could see me now
[Post-Chorus]
See me now, wish she could see me now
See me now
If high school me could see me now
See me now, wish she could see me now
See me now, see me now
[Outro]
Wish I could go back, tell her it's okay
(Tell her it's okay, tell her it's okay)
Wish I could go back, tell her it's okay
(Tell her it's okay, tell her it's okay)

This started off as a joke song about hating old pictures of me from high school. Honestly, I think I default to humour when I’m feeling something uncomfortable. When I took the draft to Shane, he was like, “Oh my god, I can totally relate to this.” We both feel the same crushing embarrassment about...
