(Intro: Alarm sound ringing) [Phone Alarm: "⏰ Hurry for School! Hurry for School!"] Tik... Tik... Tik Tok Tik... Tik Tok Tik... (Door opens) Older Brother: "Oh Harry, it's time to go to school — you're late again! Let me drop you fast." Mom: "You poor Harry, you're late again… next time please be on time." Dad (shouting from the hall): "What the jerk we have in this house? Always being late!" --- (Verse 1) I know that look on your face, You're comin' my way, you're comin' my way tonight... Another day in class, but my mind ain't right, Feelin' like I'm drownin’ in this schoolboy life. Here goes another mistake, I know I’m gon’ make, I know I’m gon’ make tonight. I see you smilin’ down the hallway, But I ain't the one who should ask you to stay... --- (Pre-Chorus) Oh, I wish I let it go, You’re better off alone, ‘Cause I’m about to mess it up with you... You were my peace in the school day fight, Now I’m watchin’ you fade like the hallway light... --- (Chorus) And I will never change, I couldn’t even if I wanted to for you (oh, oh) There’s nothin’ left to say, If I was you, if I was you, then I would stay A thousand miles away... (A thousand miles away, yeah) --- (Verse 2) It’s hard to give it all up, Tryna block you out but you're in every thought. Ten fingers wrapped around my heart, Wish I could give you everything — but I'm fallin’ apart. I see you laughin’ with your friends at lunch, I’m stuck in this seat, thinkin’ 'bout us too much. You don’t deserve this mess I bring, I’m just a school kid with a foolish dream... --- (Pre-Chorus) Oh, I wish I let it go, You’re better off alone, ‘Cause I’m about to mess it up with you... Tomorrow comes, we’ll say goodbye, But your eyes still haunt me like the morning sky... --- (Chorus) And I will never change, I couldn’t even if I wanted to for you (oh, oh) There’s nothin’ left to say, If I was you, if I was you, then I would stay A thousand miles away... (A thousand miles away, yeah) --- (Bridge) Here in your arms, I’m already gone, You got me wrong… and I played along. We were just kids, but I felt it all, Now I’m watchin’ love take the fall… --- (Final Chorus) I know that look on your face, You're comin' my way, you're comin' my way tonight Here goes another mistake, I know I'm gon' make, I know I'm gon' make tonight And I will never change, I couldn’t even if I wanted to for you (oh, oh) There’s nothin’ left to say, If I was you, if I was you, then I would stay A thousand miles away... (A thousand miles away, yeah) ---(Outro: School Bell Ringing, Soft Beat Fades) (Faint classroom sounds in the background) [School Bell: Ding... Ding...] (Spoken in a soft voice, almost like a diary entry) Harry: "Maybe I was never the hero in your story... But you were the best chapter in mine." (Whispers fade in with beat echo) Tik... Tok... Tik... A thousand miles... but still so close... (Last beat fades like a ticking clock slowing down) Tik… ...Tok... ...
