Dear Parents

Sixteen, out of her mind
Got a few friends, left the rest behind
But guess that's just what happens, people change
Stressed out, but it's always fine

They be asking, but she can't describe
Maybe they're right, it'll all be fixed with age
Hate that you've been saying I'm dramatic
Immature because I just don't wanna talk

You ever think that you might be overreacting
Promise I'm thinking, over thinking quite a lot
They say we're crazy and useless
Making stupid excuses

To go make bad decisions when we're hurt
We're not crazy romantics
But we still know what our heart is
And know that when it's cracked, it really burns

Oh, we know more than what we tell you
But can't always put it into words
And we don't cry because we want to
But you assume it's because

She's another sixteen-year-old girl
High school been terrifying
When she thinks she won't ever find someone
To build her back when she's in pieces and pieces again

Let's not forget about all the ones
Who go around the mall just to stay relevant and not miss out
Hate that you've been saying I'm dramatic
Immature because I just don't wanna talk

You ever think that you might be overreacting
Promise I'm thinking, oh we're thinking quite a lot
They say we're crazy and useless
Making stupid excuses

To go make bad decisions when we're hurt
We're not crazy romantics
But we still know what our heart is
And know that when it's cracked, it really burns

Oh, we know more than what we tell you
But we can't always be put into words
And we don't cry because we want to
But you assume it's because

She's another sixteen-year-old girl
