Nothing Special

Crimson kids
Rebellious cars
Parked outside bars, staring at stars

Burn the place with an icy glare
Make them all stop and stare
Lilac girls and painted skies
Never have time for surfer guys

Jump off a roof
Watch it on loop
Like and share
Truth or dare

Summer spell
Kiss and tell
Gossip spreads
Nobodies turn heads

Blue skies 
Tie-dies
Clear as day
Make the rain clouds melt away

Pretty boys wearing bows
Hear the laughter, strike a pose
Punch him out
Comatose

Loving
Living
Staring
Being

Laying in the misty grass
Time runs out in the hourglass
