Kyng

Verse 1

Second period smells like sawdust and regret

I keep my head down by the belt sander

You walk in late with that lazy grin

Dreads swinging past your collar

Everybody knows your name in here

Nobody knows mine at all

Pre-Chorus

You lean on my table like it's nothing

Ask if I got a charger I can spare

I hand it over with shaking fingers

Stare at the grain till you walk away

Chorus

Kyng

I can't even say it out loud

Kyng

You're a senior and I'm just a sophomore ghost

You smell like smoke and sunlight

And I go red every single time

Kyng

Verse 2

You call me kid and I don't correct you

I'd let you call me anything you want

You've got a smile that could wreck a whole classroom

I've got a face I hide behind my hood

When you ask me for a piece of gum

I forget how my own voice works

Pre-Chorus

The teacher's talking joints and dowels

I'm just counting the minutes you stay

You say thanks and you ruffle my hair

I don't wash it for a week

Chorus

Kyng

I can't even say it out loud

Kyng

You're a senior and I'm just a sophomore ghost

You smell like smoke and sunlight

And I go red every single time

Kyng

Bridge

Maybe next year I'll be brave

Maybe next year you'll be gone

Maybe I'll just keep the charger

Maybe I'll just keep the gum

Maybe this is all I get

A quiet kid and a hallway crush

Chorus

Kyng

I can't even say it out loud

Kyng

You're a senior and I'm just a sophomore ghost

You smell like smoke and sunlight

And I go red every single time

Kyng

Outro

(I go red)
