[Verse 1]
Late night hysteria
Tried to sleep, I said I would
Wish I was good at that
Thinking of when I was
Younger and better at
Being alone 'cause I was nobody
[Chorus]
I used to be alone at the back of the bus, just my headphones and me
Obviously, doctor, you’ve never been a high school girl at seventeen
The only thing that got me through was Kevin Drew and the Scene
But now it's all gone, got my makeup on
And I'm not going back, never go back
[Post-Chorus]
Never look back, never look back
Never look back, never look back
Never look back, never look back
Never look back, never look back
[Verse 2]
High school hysteria
Lonely eyes misunderstood
I didn’t know what that meant
Think about growing up
Freedom and confidence
I can finally be somebody
[Chorus]
Wished I was one of the chosen ones and I hate me for that
Beauty evolves like an awkward pause, we expand and contract
The only thing that got me through was Karen O, yeah, yeah, yeah
But now it's all gone, got my makeup on
And I'm not going back, never go back
[Bridge]
I'll never break down
I'll never fall
I will never come back home again
I'll never break down
I'll never fall
I will never be so small again
I will never break down
I'll never fall
I will never come back home again
I will never break down
I’ll never fall
I will never be so small again
[Chorus]
I used to be alone at the back of the bus, just my headphones and me
Obviously, doctor, you’ve never been a high school girl at seventeen (So small again)
The only thing that got me through was Kevin Drew and the Scene
But now it's all gone, got my makeup on (I’ll never be so small)
And I'm not going back (So small again)
