Young, Awkward & Lonely

[Verse 1]
The first time I fell in love
He walked into class
Smelling of roses, bubblegum and beer
And all the girls followed him around like a pack of hungry wolves, uh
Oh, and those tight jeans on those strong legs
Those honey brown eyes left me breathless
And in so much pain
They always looked straight through me

[Chorus]
'Cause I was a little boy who played guitar
And drew out his dreams on the bedroom walls
Of a broken home filled with broken hearts
Too many nights I'd fall asleep
In the silent comfort of my tears

[Post-Chorus]
How I used to believe that no one would ever love me for me
Oh, to be young awkward and lonely

[Verse 2]
Fresh outta high school
I was sitting on the bed of a stranger I'd met on the internet
Flames of desire in his eyes setting me on fire
The taste of rosé on his soft lips
As he stripped me off my innocence
It was strawberry sweet
And turned sour in a week

[Chorus]
'Cause I was a little in over my head
Maybe a little too desperate for one-night stands
To turn into something more than that
Too many nights I'd lie awake
To hear the sound of my own heart break

[Post-Chorus]
Man, I was so afraid that everyone would walk away in the end
Oh, to be young awkward and lonely

[Bridge]
Slowly they'd come and fast they'd go (Oh, oh, oh)
Until one came along worth fighting for
So don't you ever think you're the only one (No, no, no)
Who wasted half their youth waiting to be found
The pain doesn't last forever

[Outro]
It's okay
It's okay, baby
To be young, awkward and lonely (It's okay, baby, it's okay)
It's okay, baby
To be young, awkward and lonely (It's okay, baby, it's okay)
It's okay, baby
To be young, awkward and lonely (It's okay, baby, it's okay)
(It's okay, baby)
To be young, awkward and lonely (It's okay, baby, it's okay)
(It's okay, baby)
It's okay, baby, it's okay
