Misfits

[slow burning rock soul till 30 second mark] [change into mid tempo alt-rock] [Verse 1 – slow, hazy, nostalgic] I swiped the keys and stole my dad’s old car, didn’t check if there was gas in the tank Took two beers from your brothers fridge, cause that’s all you could take Headed to the state line, no looking back Ripped a piece of the map, used it to roll a joint in your lap [Verse 2] Danced barefoot on the hood, radio playin’ slow You blew smoke in the sky, I kissed you just below Never talked about labels, never needed to And that kiss? Yeah, that felt true [Chorus ] We were misfits, baby, raised on bad ideas Snuck out late, picked fights, used our fake ID’s Didn’t care if they whispered, didn’t care if they knew You weren’t mine, but I still felt something too We were misfits — and it meant something To me [Verse 3] Fought those girls who talked shit, you never held back Lip split, knuckles bruised, but you always had my back Laid out on your trunk, stars stuck in our hair Talked about running, about cutting ties, getting anywhere [Final Chorus raw energy] We were misfits, baby, in cutoff jeans and lies Taking turns with secrets, blowing weed smoke at the sky I don’t know where you are now — don’t even have your name But back then we burned like rules didn’t mean a damn thing We were misfits — and that was enough Wasn’t it?
