Rjonesified

Verse 1

Sitting on my skateboard by the chain-link gate

Leather jacket heavy but my hands are shaking still

Saw her laugh at the corner store with the morning light

Got a stud in my ear and a hole in my shoe

But my mom would lose it if she knew

Dad keeps saying punk is just a phase that I'll outgrow

Pre-Chorus

But she don't need no reasons

She just smiles through the seasons

And I'm too scared to say it loud

Chorus

I wanna tell her that I love her

Can't tell my parents that I love her

Sneaking out through the window at midnight

Throwing stones till her blue light flickers on

I wanna hold her hand in the daylight

But afraid of what they'd say

Torn between a kiss and a quiet home

Verse 2

She paints little hearts on my ripped denim sleeve

I draw her name on the back of my worn out jacket

We meet at the bus stop like it's some secret code

Every whisper in the hallway makes my chest go tight

The neighbors all talk when my bike brakes squeal

But I'd ride through a hurricane just to see her eyes

Pre-Chorus

She called me brave last Friday

Didn't know I shake in the hallway

Someday maybe I'll say it loud

Chorus

I wanna tell her that I love her

Can't tell my parents that I love her

Sneaking out through the window at midnight

Throwing stones till her blue light flickers on

I wanna hold her hand in the daylight

But afraid of what they'd say

Torn between a kiss and a quiet home

Bridge

Two worlds in my pocket

A ripped flag and a locket

One day they'll meet in the middle

Till then I'll keep the secret whistle

Chorus

I wanna tell her that I love her

Can't tell my parents that I love her

Sneaking out through the window at midnight

Throwing stones till her blue light flickers on

I wanna hold her hand in the daylight

But afraid of what they'd say

Torn between a kiss and a quiet home

Outro

(Mm)

Torn between a kiss

(Mm-hmm)

And a quiet home

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Yeah

Verse 1

Boots on clouds

Feet don't touch the ground

I'm stepping through the vapor

Where the lost hopes gather round

Pockets full of promises

That never saw the light

Every step a story

Every breath a fight

Pre-Chorus

I walk alone

I walk alone

Through the static of the night

Chorus

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Catch me gliding through the seams

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Yeah

Post-Chorus

(Boom-boom-bap-bap-boom)

(Boom-boom-bap-bap-boom)

Verse 2

Shattered constellations

Map my way back home

I'm tracing all the fragments

Through the places I once roamed

Clouds are crying softly

But I won't look down

Got a one-way ticket

To a kingdom with no crown

Pre-Chorus

I walk alone

I walk alone

Through the wreckage of the past

Chorus

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Catch me gliding through the seams

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Yeah

Bridge

Step step step

On the glass of what I wanted

Step step step

Never haunted

Just reminded what I lost

But the cost

Was the lesson that I needed

Chorus

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Catch me gliding through the seams

Walking alone in the skies

Walking alone in the skies

Of broken dreams

Yeah

Outro

(Boom-boom-bap-bap-boom)

Walking

(Boom-boom-bap-bap-boom)

Alone

(Boom-boom-bap-bap-boom)

Mm
