In the Glow

Outcast from the start
They'll try to get your heart
Everyone's so afraid
Attack to avoid getting played

Vodka filled water bottles
Emotions to the throttle
I hid the cuts for weeks
Sweaters in the Cali sun

There's a dent in the steel
But it's worse where I feel
They pushed us into lockers
Those hateful sleepwalkers

I guess the stars I saw
Are the only ones around here, ha
These zombies live in fear
In this town they don't like queer

Freeze time on a Friday night
We felt alright in the glow of headlights

Outcast from the start
They'll try to get your heart
Everyone's so unsure
Attack because we must endure

Suckerpunch to the gut
You'd call me when you cut
You hid the scars for years
Sweaters in the Cali sun

Snuck in and out the bar
Spraypainted our friend's car
Drove out to Hollywood
Just to show ourselves we could

Only fit in with the freaks
Halloween 7 days a week
Kissing girls in the boy's bathroom
Kissing boys in my girlfriend's room

Freeze time on a Friday night
We felt alright in the glow of headlights

I never could find the right words
The way to say the things that'd would let you know
The feelings I couldn't let go
Even if scars fade we carry their weight
We carry the memories
Echos etched into the depths of our cells
Ran from the cage, ran from the noose I made
To take another chance, to join the dance again

Freeze time on a Friday night
We felt alright in the glow of headlights
Freeze time on a Friday night
We felt alright in the glow of headlights
