High School
Nostalgic Echoes: High School Memories and Lost Friendships
Lyrics
We were just in high school
We reminisce about our time in high school.
We weren't just friends
Our relationship was more than just a friendship.
Caught up in a love song
We were caught up in the emotions of a love song.
Then reality kicked in
Reality intervened, bringing us back to the real world.
Two students playin' card games
We, as students, spent time playing card games.
Talking bout the old days
We discussed and reminisced about the past.
When we were 12 and playing Minecraft
Referencing a shared memory of playing Minecraft at the age of 12.
I wish we'd go back to our old ways
Expressing a desire to return to the simplicity of our earlier days.
Mm
A contemplative interjection, possibly indicating a sigh or reflection.
We made fun of all the others
We mocked others because we were young and superficial.
Cause we were shallow kids
Describing the speaker and the boy as shallow kids.
We said, "we're really different from them"
We believed we were fundamentally different from others.
At least we really thought we did (or is it were?)
Reflecting on the uncertainty of whether they truly were different.
Couple days 'til graduation
A few days before graduation, a crucial and stressful time.
We had been so complicated
Our relationship was complicated and challenging.
Time's a-ticking and it scared us
The ticking of time frightened us as graduation approached.
Our time was soon to be outdated
Our time together was about to become a thing of the past.
Mm
A contemplative interjection, possibly indicating a sigh or reflection.
Now I'm sitting in my bedroom
The speaker is now in their room, contemplating the past.
Tryin' to write a stupid song
Attempting to write a song about a boy they were once friends with.
About a boy that I was friends with
The boy interpreted the relationship differently, leading to a conflict.
He saw it different, I was wrong
The speaker acknowledges their mistake in the situation.
He said he wanted distance
The boy expresses a desire for distance in the relationship.
And I gave it to him sadly
The speaker reluctantly grants the distance.
I don't remember when we talked last
They can't recall the last time they spoke but feel a deep sense of longing.
I just know I miss him badly
Expressing a strong feeling of missing the boy.
Mm
A contemplative interjection, possibly indicating a sigh or reflection.
