American Idle Less Than Jake

[Verse 1]
We were the kids from the cul-de-sacs
That got out somehow without lookin' back
It's over, it's over
We were the ones that grew up too fast
On the front porch steps when we still had friends
It's over, it's over
We were the kids who were laughin' last
With big ideas and failed attempts
It's over, it's over
Repeat it now, repeat it with me

[Chorus]
It's in the way we can't explain
Why we were the ones who got away
It's in the way these memories will fade
So we always keep them locked away
Lock them away

[Verse 2]
We were the kids who would scrape and save
And we'd wait around for some better days
It's over, it's over
We were the kids that left one by one
We said we would when we were young
It's over, yeah it's over
Repeat it now, repeat it with me
