prom

I never had a prom

Instead I broke down in my car

I guess it took twenty

To know that I cared all along

We never went on a date

Quarantine made sure that I was too late

Now you're with other guys

I didn't know it was a race

Wish it could all fucking slow down

Speeding up, knowing I've missed out

Finding out I'm just your rebound

Why can't I just change?

I'm so sick of the chase

How the hell did I end up in my parents' house?

Everybody my age has already moved out

I never learned to drive

I didn't break down in my car, that's a lie

I wrote just to feel like I'm living a normal teen's life

We never went all the way

I said I move slow and you said that's okay

But it's not when my youth feels like class and I'm falling behind

Wish it could all fucking slow down

Don't even know my own hometown

Two senior years and a fallout

Why can't I just change?

I'm so sick of the chase

How the hell has this year already flown by?

And will I be the last of my friends to die?
