[Verse 1]
I didn't cry at graduation
Or when they screamed that we had made it
I think this town has expired on me
I’ve come to terms with all the bad memories

[Chorus]
School is just a building
The people come and go
Yeah one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
So I won't be at reunion ten years down the road
But you'll see me, yeah, I bet you’ll see me on the billboards
Billboards, on the billboards
Billboards, on the billboards

[Verse 2]
I hope my counselor gets fired
I'm sure I'm not thе only one who's tired (I'm so tired)
I can't bеlieve I used to be caught up in what they say about me
In retrospect, I must admit, I've always felt so incomplete
But this isn't even my hometown, I’m not even American
I honestly would rather drown than have to move back here again
My ex is stuck in the past, he taught me to move on fast

[Chorus]
School is just a building
The people come and go
Yeah one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
So I won’t be at reunion ten years down the road
But you'll see me, yeah I bet you’ll see me on the billboards
Billboards, on the billboards
Billboards, on the billboards
[Bridge]
I wonder how long it takes for me to leave without a trace
And for my mark on this town to be completely erased
Will they throw parties without me?
Will they ever feel sorry?
For how they scarred me or forget all about me
(Billboards, on the billboards)
(Billboards, on the billboards)

[Outro]
I didn't cry at graduation
I need a permanent vacation

[Spoken]
I'm so excited for college
