Memories

When I look at this photograph I always laugh 

How did our eyes get so red and what the hell is on Andrews head 

This is where I grew up 

I went to school at Arrowhead 

Door eight was meant for sneaking out  

I always had better things to do

Than me going to school  

I wonder if it's too late for me 

To try to relive those days 

But life’s a lot better than it was back then 

With my photos on my phone all throughout throughout my page 

I got a hundred ways to relive those days 

But it's time to say goodbye 

I remember the old schoolhouse 

The cops always hated us hanging out there 

They put up no trespassing tape but we still made it great 

We always used to listen to the radio while going ninety down the county road.

Amy was the first girl I kissed I was so nervous that I almost missed she's moved on 

I haven't seen her since god knows when 

I'm going to miss this town 

The memories 

I can’t replace it  

It's hard to stay 

But I got to go

If I could relive these days 

I know nothing would ever change 

When I look at this photograph
