lyrics

people who ride the same wave
will end up together
you and i are two signs
that fit because we differ

all the kids are crying we feel so alone
all the kids are trying to go back home
we’re all hanging out at the dog park
safest place to be when it gets dark

you’re throwing pebbles at my window at 3am
driving down the highway holding my hand
neon night times at the diner
and poems written on napkins
we can talk about your feelings under the full moon
everything is strange and moving too soon

you don’t have to be scared
of the boys at train station
you and i are two sides
of the same coin and imagination

all the kids are crying we feel so alone
all the kids are trying to go back home
we’re all hanging out at the dog park
safest place to be when it gets dark

you’re throwing pebbles at my window at 3am
driving down the highway holding my hand
neon night times at the diner
and poems written on napkins
we can talk about your feelings under the full moon
everything is strange and moving too soon

we can slow down and breathe in the cold air
7am take our dogs for a walk
yeah
it’s only has hard as we make it out to be
our lungs inflate with fears anxieties about existence
but look at our dogs, they're sniffing their shit and they seem perfectly content

all the kids are crying we feel so alone
all the kids are trying to go back home
we’re all hanging out at the dog park
safest place to be when it gets dark

you’re throwing pebbles at my window at 3am
driving down the highway holding my hand
neon night times at the diner
and poems written on napkins
we can talk about your feelings under the full moon
everything is strange and moving too soon
