[Verse 1]
We were stupid children, wandering a million years
Broke our faith and lost our minds for a couple tears
You hopped right in your car and barely scratched the surface, darling
You tore it all apart
You tore it all apart

[Chorus]
'Cause we were just children
And it was scary as hell
Just like a stranger
Wishing you well

You said you love me but never tell

[Verse 2]
It was so peculiar, the way you looked at me
Said your momma's lonely, smiling lies in her skinny jeans
You walked right out a room and I don't know what hit you
But you tore it all apart
We tore it all apart

(Chorus)
But we were just children
And it was scary as hell
Just like a stranger
Wishing you well
You said you love me but never tell

[Verse 3]
But
Oh, dear, everyone's a liar
And the new year, everyone's a liar
When they can't hear; everyone's a liar when it all comes down

And oh, Lord
Faces on the bus are looking deformed
Monsters in my head are screaming
"I'm yours"
Guess that's how it happens when it all goes down

It's fine, I'll ride 'em to the end of the blue line
Think about how I spent my time
Now that love is gone
And if it all came down

[Chorus]
But we were just children
And it was scary as hell
Just like a stranger
Wishing you well

We were just children
And it was scary as hell
Just like a stranger
Wishing you well
You said you love me but never tell
