Arkells feat. Tegan and Sara Lyrics
"Teenage Tears"

I couldn't be what I sold you
All alone with my own thoughts
It's why you always see me with my headphones on
My headphones on
You showed me every inch of you
Even the parts you were ashamed of
That's when I said I'll turn the camera off
The camera

Now you think that every word I said was made up
Like I was coasting on your love for years
Yeah, I fucked it up, but, babe, I never faked it
Now you got me drowning in, drowning in these
Teenage tears
Teenage tears

All I wanna do is hold you
Feel you in the middle of the night
You let your guard down for me
Saying I'm all yours, this is all mine
Pour some liquor, drink it straight up
My favorite shirt and some Nikes
I promised you I'd take it if
The cops showed up, cops showed

Now you think that every word I said was made up
Like I was coasting on your love for years
Yeah, I fucked it up, but, babe, I never faked it
Now you got me drowning in, drowning in these

Now you cleared out all your stuff
With your dad and a moving truck
Left a note on the kitchen table
Saying, "Don't call, I won't be waiting"
Something that you need to know
Was I for real or all for show?
You're the first thing that I think of
When I wake up

Now I wonder how you're doing
Like I'm asking for a friend
Now we're changing up passwords
Changing addresses, changing

Now you think that every word I said was made up (I said was made up)
Like I was coasting on your love for years (love for years)
Yeah, I fucked it up, but, babe, I never faked it (I never faked it)
You got me drowning in, drowning in these
Teenage tears (teenage tears)
Teenage tears
