[Verse 1]
Alarm’s screaming, I hit skip
Same old ceiling, same old scripts
Broken sneakers by the door
But I still want something more
Phone screen glow like a ghost
Scroll past people I miss most
Tell myself “you’re fine, you’re fine”
While I’m fraying at the spine
[Chorus]
We’ve been running on the wreckage
Skateboard hearts and jacket pins
Yeah, we’re cut up, yeah, we’re cracked
But we still don’t cave, we still don’t give in
Singing way too loud in traffic
Like the chaos is our friend
We’re the kids who never had it
So we’re making up the ending
[Verse 2]
Mom says, “baby, get some rest”
Boss says, “grind and fake your best”
I say, “meet me at that lot
Where they painted over us”
Backpack full of stupid dreams
Sharpie ink on ripped-up jeans
You say “maybe this is it”
I say “that’s the point of it”
[Chorus]
We’ve been running on the wreckage
Skateboard hearts and jacket pins
Yeah, we’re cut up, yeah, we’re cracked
But we still don’t cave, we still don’t give in
Singing way too loud in traffic
Like the chaos is our friend
We’re the kids who never had it
So we’re making up the ending
[Bridge]
Hands up, middle of the breakdown (hey!)
Name every little thing that dragged you out
All the nights you almost backed down
But you didn’t, but you didn’t
(Still here, still breathing)
[Chorus]
We’ve been running on the wreckage
Skateboard hearts and jacket pins
Yeah, we’re cut up, yeah, we’re cracked
But we still don’t cave, we still don’t give in
Singing way too loud in traffic
Like the chaos is our friend
We’re the kids who never had it
So we’re making up the ending
Yeah, we’re making up the ending (oh-oh)
We’re the story, not the ending
