High School

wish i'd told you what it means.
when i'm here it's like the prelude to a dream.
i'd have left here if i could,
but i don't know if i ever would.

i'm just fine and i'm alright
and i'm just gonna sleep away
and i'm just fine and i'm alright
and i'm just gonna pass away tonight.
and i'm alright.

wish i'd told you you'll be fine, but i'm alright.
wish i'd stayed out late at night. but i'm alright.
wish i'd been there for the fight. but i'm alright.
wish i'd told you how it feels. it's all so real.

wish i'd been here just before
they brought the pictures out and cut us to the core.
i won't sleep here anymore.
i don't mean it but i just want to be sure.
