What are we doing?
Those endless summers
Grazing knees in the parking lot
The city is blooming
We look so bored and perfect
In that blurry shot
A frame of dislocated time
Faded by the sun, stuck inside my mind
What about the world inside our rooms
They seem so tiny
What about the friends we meant to keep
We never doubted we'd be loved
No matter who we'd choose to be
(Look who we chose to be)
What about the fun we had for free
We can't afford it now
What about the things we never thought to fear
I think about it all the time
And wonder how we disappear
What are we doing?
An afternoon would take
Forever to unfold
It felt like a movie
We could rewind it
Every time the credits rolled
It's time, there's nothing here to learn
A part just melts away never to return
What about the world inside our rooms
They seem so tiny
What about the friends we meant to keep
We never doubted we'd be loved
No matter who we'd choose to be
(Look who we chose to be)
What about the fun we had for free
We can't afford it now
What about the things we never thought to fear
We never doubted we'd be loved
No wonder how we disappear
