Rewind to the scene with Teenage Me
High school is done, it's '93
Got me a deal, bought my first bass
The means to survive this hopeless place

Learnin' the trade from punk rock tapes
It's more than a fad, there's no escape
I'm joining a band later that year
Blowing the chance of a career

Afraid of missing out?
Nothing will happen
Start writing songs about
Being let down

I hate to tell you it's only downhill now
I've seen the future, don't set your hopes too high
