[Verse 1]
It started with, "What are you wearing?"
He said
"Move a little closer, I can't bare it"
And I can't be the only one
But it feels like it
Yeah, you can't be the only son, no
If I knew how to run
[Pre-Chorus]
But you don't wanna love me
So why do you think I care?
Just take a note from young me, yeah
And keep runnin' and runnin' away now
[Chorus]
So don't tell me I look good (Oh)
Head down, where's the power in that?
Oh, sweet adolescence (Oh)
But it's bitter and, oh, it tastes bad
This ain't gonna age well (Oh)
And for you, I hate that (Mm)
[Verse 2]
It's easy to tell me, ooh
It's not gonna hurt me, I'vе been on the verge, ooh
You'vе taken what's mine, I'm conformed to this life
And I'll spit you out, yeah, I'll heal alright
Oh, I can't be the only one, the only one
'Cause I've heard it before
I'm crashin' through whims of love, yeah
Got the eye of a bird
[Pre-Chorus]
But you don't wanna love me
So why do you think I care? (I care)
Just take a note from young me, yeah
And keep runnin' and runnin' away now
[Chorus]
So don't tell me I look good (Oh)
Head down, where's the power in that?
Oh, sweet adolescence (Oh)
But it's bitter and, oh, it tastes bad
This ain't gonna age well (Oh)
And for you, I hate that
[Bridge]
So don't take this out on me
'Cause I've got enough in my way
And when did this come to be?
The thing that would spend my faith
Oh, no
[Outro]
Ooh, you don't wanna love me, you love me
Ooh, oh, no
Take a note, take a note from young me
Yeah, keep runnin' and runnin' away
Away, away, away, oh
You don't wanna love me (Yeah)
Take a note, take a note from young me
Young me, yeah
No, oh, no (No, no, no), you don't wanna love me
Keep runnin' and runnin' away
