High School in Jakarta

Didn't you hear Amanda's movin' back to Colorado?

It's 2013 and the end of my life

Freshman's year's about to plummet just a little harder

But it didn't 'cause we kissed on that Halloween night

I bleached half my hair when I saw Zoe on your Vespa

It was orange from three percent peroxide, thanks to you

I needed a good cry, I headed right to Kendra's

I hated you and I hoped to God that you knew

Now there's drama (drama), found a club for that

Where I met ya (met ya), had a heart attack

Yadda, yadda, at the end, yeah, we burned

Made a couple U-turns, you were it 'til you weren't, mm

High school in Jakarta, sorta modern Sparta

Had no chance against the teenage suburban armadas

We were a sonata, thanks to tight-lipped fathers

Yeah, livin' under that was hard, but I loved you harder

High school in Jakarta, an elaborate saga

I still hate you for makin' me wish I came out smarter

You love-hate your mother, so do I

Could've ended different, then again

We went to high school in Jakarta

Got a group assignment, I'll be at Val's place

You don't text at all and only call when you're off your face

I'm petty and say, "Call me when you're not unstable"

I lie and tell you I'll be getting drunk at Rachel's

I wasn't, she doesn't even drink

But I couldn't have you sit there and think

That you're better 'cause you're older

Are you better now that we're older?

Had no chance against the teenage suburban armadas

Yeah, livin' under that was hard, but I loved you harder

High school in Jakarta, a comedy drama

I still hate you for makin' me wish I came out smarter

You love-hate your mother, so do I

Could've ended different, then again
