[Verse 1]
I want to be cool
I want everyone to look at me the way they look at you
Found myself recently mimicking the things that you do
Does that appeal to you? I'm on your avenue
You said to pick you up after school but make sure no one sees me do it

[Verse 2]
Well we're just the best baby
Oh, so midwest baby
Dead of the night in the parking lot sex
Maybe we could change it up?
I could tell my friends
I could stop lying to my mom and pretending like the road goes on
When it clearly says dead ending

[Chorus]
Well I've been waiting for the answer so long I forgot the question
Poured my heart out to the walls and found that they matched your affection
Do you see, you're tearing at my body?
Every time you want it I think that I'm wanted

[Bridge]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 3]
We went to the statewide music competition
Placed in the same hotel room
We made the decision to stay in separate beds
But behind the concert stands
You told me if I wanted to that I could hold your hand
But not in front of your cool friends, just the ones in band
[Chorus]
Well I've been waiting for the answer so long I forgot the question
Poured my heart out to the walls and found that they matched your affection
Do you see, you're tearing at my body?
Every time you want it, I think that I'm wanted

[Verse 4]
So I will share your body with anyone who wants it
I know it's what you want, but I really wish it wasn't
I could be your kingpin, I could be your captain
I could have your children, I could be important
Let me be in your orbit, let me be your mountain
I will be the dragon burning it to ashes

[Outro]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
