I Know What It’s Like To Be 16

I know how to be 16

I know how to be here

Are you here with me?

I know how, I know how

I know how, I know how to be alive

And I'm alive



'cause I still take trigonometry

And I don't know what it means to be an adult

But I know a heartbreak once I cannot [?] you again

Don't [?] tonight

I think I lost myself



'cause I am half alive

When I look into your eyes

And I think they're [?]

And I know you made those mistakes

You-- you wasted all of your time



'cause I go to the parties

And I think they're about me

But they're not

No, they're not

'cause I go to the parties

I dance with the boys I think are cute

I think it's you



And I know what's like to be 16

And I am half alive staring at the future in front of me

I know what's like and I'm not falling

I am not a-falling, but I am not a-falling

I am not a-falling

I am not, I am not, I am not



'cause I forgot to be 16

I thought I was 20

And I thought I was better than the rest

So here's to be a 16

Here's to all the memories

I thought it was about me

Isn't that about me?
