[Verse 1] I wish my life played like a VHS Short bursts of color with a blurry edge Instead, I'm not really hated, not really liked Stuck in the in-between of the outside Weekends are boring, friends say they’re fine Wish I had scandals and no free time I've never ever been the golden girl the whole block sees Stripes on her jacket, perfect body, varsity [Pre-Chorus] If I could go back, would I get to Make more friends beside the sandpit? If I could go back, would I get far? Put ten years in every minute [Chorus] It’s fine, but what more can I say? Stop signs weather out and roads change I gotta drive but I can't look past the rearview mirror It's fine but what more can I say? Wish I were somebody who made You say, “I’m glad I knew ya back in the day” [Verse 2] And now it’s almost over, caps in a year Nothing to do but want out of here Swearing to make up for the lost nights, take every call A thousand trips to fill an empty photo wall [Pre-Chorus] If I look ahead, would I get to Reinvent and leap to the top? If I look ahead, would they guess I've Always been the last to catch up? [Chorus] It’s fine, but what more can I say? Stop signs weather out and roads change I gotta drive but I can't look past the rearview mirror It's fine but what more can I say? Wish I were somebody who made You say, “I’m glad I knew ya back in the day” [Hook] These should be the best years I don’t wanna be here These should be the best years These should be the best years I don’t wanna be here These should be the best years [Bridge] And I can see myself practicing a smile in the reflection of the pane I'll be fine I'll be fine But not back in the day [Chorus] It’s fine, but what more can I say? Stop signs weather out and roads change I gotta drive but I can't look past the rearview mirror It's fine but what more can I say? Wish I were somebody who made You say, “I’m glad I knew ya back in the day” [Outro] These should be the best years I don’t wanna be here These should be the best years
