High School Queen

I didn't wanna ever be your goodbye, baby
I didn't wanna be someone you love to hate
I didn't wanna burn just like your pictures baby
That's how the story goes—too little too late

And I don't wanna mess around
Cause you're only gonna bring me down
Set your eyes on someone new
That's why I said

Don't look
Come back when you grow up
Cause I used to write the love song
But I had it so wrong

I'll see you in a dream—
My high school queen

I didn't want to get so far involved now, baby
I didn't want to see you crying on the floor
I didn't want to push you around but, maybe
It really wasn't me who pushed you out the door

And I don't wanna hang around
Cause I'm only gonna hit the ground
Set your eyes on someone new

So why stand so far away
I won't be back here today
And chances are I'm not here tomorrow

My mind is blown apart
I don't know where to start
I guess my comfort lies in you
