18

She was an older version of myself Everything I wanted to be No matter how much I loved her She wasn't the girl of my dreams She had her life started early Her baby was turning 1 I was a little flirty But no damage had been done There were rumors spread And lines crossed I gained a friend But at my loss And the innocence that I thought was there Were the silent days and awful stares Now we're screaming in the hallways Making a whole damn scene Tears are running down your face You breaking promises on my promise ring I never loved her, the way I did you But I was 18 and you were suffocating me What the hell was I supposed to do? You were everything I had hoped for Had the world looking up at us No matter how many opinions crawled You smiled and they just hushed You had my reputation hurt My heart in two You know I would never Hurt even half of you It's just been a year And you've got me here Begging for you to stay And fighting through my tears Now we're screaming in the hallways Making a whole damn scene Tears are running down your face You breaking promises on my promise ring I never loved her, the way I did you But I was 18 and you were suffocating me What the hell was I supposed to do? You never knew the whole damn story You went by the texts that you read And what other said She and I will only know the story And it lives rent free in our head Now we're screaming in the hallways Making a whole damn scene Tears are running down your face You breaking promises on my promise ring I never loved her, the way I did you But I was 18 and you were suffocating me What the f*ck was I supposed to do?
