lyrics

Important things we learned they weren’t in the books
I’ll go down to the library, return all those dirty looks
They think we’re robbers, smugglers, and thieves
We’re the best thing that we could be, we’re free

She lost her head, walked up to the mailbox never to return again
She fumbles with her fingers, finds herself a razor, now she’s fighting to win
Know that it’s just fair play, Let’s all of those screams out
I’ll show you one day, show you what this life’s about

Important things we learned they weren’t in the books
I’ll go down to the library and return all those dirty looks
They think we’re robbers, smugglers, and thieves
We’re the best thing that we could be, we’re free

He picks up a lighter trying to ignite the feelings that he can’t ignore
“Come on, son, just breathe deep. You’re looking like a mess from your humble spot on the floor.”
I’m just trying to show you that one day if we try everything will be okay
Why don’t we just save it? Wrap it up and tape it. Use it on a rainy day

Important things we learned they weren’t in the books
I’ll go down to the library, return all those dirty looks
They think we’re robbers, they think we’re smugglers, they think we’re thieves
We’re the best thing that we could be, we’re free

Just grab your friends and I’ll grab mine
Don’t be cautious, we don’t have the time
The minute hand and the hour, they collapse
Well I’ve got you, you’ve got me
I’ll try to teach how to be happy
If you, if you, you can teach me how to feel

The important things we learned they weren’t in the books
I’ll go down to the library, return all those dirty looks
They think we’re robbers, they think we’re smugglers, they think we’re thieves
We’re the best thing that we could be, we’re free
