Jade Lyrics by Taylor Castro

Girl, Afraid

2021

[Verse 1]
Whispered your name behind the kitchen island
In your old house I heard was haunted
Hid from your big brother's party
My mom had made my sister bring me
I just thought you were so cool
We talked one time in afterschool
And there I was with the friendship bracelet
And I believed it was made of diamonds

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But friendships fade around fifteen
Like emeralds fade to jaded green
Though I had always thought I'd see us
Cry at each other's weddings
We used to kick and fight and scrеam
Then hide and nevеr have to leave
Now we text just once a year
With hollow plans to get coffee

[Chorus 1]
And maybe it's for the best
That we both went in different paths
If there's one thing I've learned from us
It's friendship isn't effortless

[Verse 2]
Only twelve when you smoked out a bottle
'Cause I was giving good peer pressure
One hit and we were paranoid
Poured red eye drops in our still pure eyes
And we both thought we were so cool
Rolling our shorts and failing school
But I feel guilty 'til this day
That you were expelled and I went free

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And then our friendship faded at fifteen
Like emeralds fade to jaded green
And ever since your parents split
You've had to help your mom pay rent
So you put the whole school thing on hold
And worked with golden retrievers
And on the side you sell some drinks
You're not yet old enough to hold

[Chorus 2]
Tell me it's for the best
Feels like I caused and never stayed to clean up the mess
If there's one thing I've learned from us
It's friendship isn't effortless

[Bridge]
Remember September when you bled on a bottle
That you broke by my pool
And you were suddenly sober?
Put your best to the rest
But saved your tears for the shower
Always dreamed of being a Victoria's Secret angel

[Outro]
But those cigarette stains and girlhood days
They fade
Yeah, all those cigarette stains and girlhood days
They fade
Yeah, all those cigarette stains and growing pains will fade
Back to jade
