Summer Kids In Leather Jackets (Industrial Post-Punk)

V5.5

VERSE 1 We were sixteen on the overpass, Sneakers hanging off the edge. Talking ‘bout escape like rebels, Smoking dreams instead of cigarettes. You said, “Everybody wants somebody, But nobody wants the risk.” I laughed and kicked the guardrail hard— Said, “Love’s exactly what this is.” PRE-CHORUS Cause we were too young to understand it, But old enough to feel the fire. Every late-night conversation Only took us higher. CHORUS We were summer kids in leather jackets, Running red lights in the rain. Learning who we were together Through all the chaos and mistakes. And every scar became a lesson, Every heartbreak made us new— I figured out who I was Standing next to you. VERSE 2 Everybody talks about freedom, Like it means leaving people behind. But real freedom’s finding somebody Who doesn’t make you hide. You saw the worst parts inside me, The anger, fear, and pride— And instead of walking away, You stayed there by my side. CHORUS We were summer kids in leather jackets, Laughing loud past 2 AM. Trying to outrun the future While the future pulled us in. And every wrong road we drove down Still somehow led us true— I learned what love could really mean Standing next to you. BRIDGE Streetlights blur like old memories, Our names carved into the night. Maybe growing up just means Finding someone worth the fight. FINAL CHORUS We were summer kids in leather jackets, Now the city feels brand new. Cause every dream I ever chased Started coming true. And if I had another lifetime, There’s only one thing I would choose— Every version of my future Standing next to you.
