Friends in High School, I Swear

[Verse 1] We carved our names In the back row desks Shared earbuds Math class naps Secret texts Passing notes About nothing at all Whispered plans Of leaving this town in the fall [Chorus] I had friends in high school I swear We were legends in that parking lot air Felt so sure the world was ours to tear I had friends in high school I swear I swear [Verse 2] Friday games Paper cups in hand Borrowed cars We drove circles Called it "the plan" Yearbook ink On a shelf somewhere All those faces Frozen mid-laugh Do they still care? [Chorus] I had friends in high school I swear We were saints and thieves on metal bleachers there Said we'd talk forever Anywhere I had friends in high school I swear I swear [Bridge] Now it's late-night scrolls Through a stranger's last name Did you cut your hair Did you change your face Or just your state? If we passed on a street Would you stop Would you wave Or would I just feel Like a rumor you barely remember you made? [Chorus] I had friends in high school I swear Every joke Every dare Hanging in the air If it feels like a dream Was I ever there? I had friends in high school I swear I swear (I swear)
