Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
I move through the city ignoring texts
I built a kingdom on being alone
Dining on silence and checking my phone
But Tuesday night at that dive bar downtown
You pulled up a chair and you sat your ass down
You didn’t ask about the skull on my arm
You handed me a lighter quiet and warm
Simple as that Just a spark in the grey
And suddenly I didn’t know what to say
Inside I’m twelve years old shaking my knees
Losing my cool by subtle degrees
I’m a rebel a cynic I don’t do sweet
But you got my heart skipping
Going off beat
Yeah off beat
Yeah Going off beat
Oh Oh
3 AM at the 7 Eleven
You bought me coffee and called it heaven
You pointed out the run in my fishnet hose
Then wrapped me up in your vintage clothes
I wanted to run to keep up my guard
But falling for you shouldn’t be this hard
You tied your shoelace and looked up at me
With a smile as easy as one two three
Simple as that Just a look in the eye
And I kissed my solo attitude goodbye
Inside I’m twelve years old shaking my knees
Losing my cool by subtle degrees
I’m a rebel a cynic I don’t do sweet
But you got my heart skipping
Going off beat
Don’t tell my friends I wrote this song
I’m concrete and steel all day long
But if you wanna walk me home tonight
I guess that would be alright
Inside I’m twelve years old shaking my knees
Yeah I’m shaking
I’m handing you over the kingdom keys
I burned down the walls yeah I admit defeat
Now the drum in my chest is
Completely off beat
You got that lighter
Yeah
Light me up
This is ridiculous
Totally off beat
Don’t hold my hand
Okay maybe just for a minute
