White houses

Crashed on the floor when I moved in
This bungalow alone with some strange new friends
Stay up too late, and I´m too thin
We promise each other it´s til the end
Now we´re spinning empty bottles
It´s the five of us
With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust
I can´t resist the day
No, I can´t resist the day
Jenny screams out and it´s no pose
´Cause when she dances she goes and goes
Beer through the nose on an inside joke
I´m so excited, I haven´t spoken
And she´s so pretty, and she´s so sure
Maybe I´m more clever than a girl like her
The summer´s all in bloom
The summer is ending soon
It´s alright and it´s nice not to be so alone
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses
Maybe I´m a little bit over my head
I come undone at the things he said
And he´s so funny in his bright red shirt
We were all in love and we all got hurt
I sneak into his car´s black leather seat
The smell of gasoline in the summer heat
Boy, we´re going way too fast
It´s all too sweet to last
It´s alright
And I put myself in his hands
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses
Love, or something ignites in my veins
And I pray it never fades in white houses
My first time, hard to explain
Rush of blood, oh, and a little bit of pain
On a cloudy day, it´s more common than you think
He´s my first mistake
Maybe you were all faster than me
We gave each other up so easily
These silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I´ve been
So I go, and I will not be back here again
I´m gone as the day is fading on white houses
I lie, put my injuries all in the dust
In my heart is the five of us
In white houses
And you, maybe you´ll remember me
What I gave is yours to keep
In white houses [x3]
This bungalow alone with some strange new friends
Stay up too late, and I´m too thin
We promise each other it´s til the end
Now we´re spinning empty bottles

No, I can´t resist the day

´Cause when she dances she goes and goes

I´m so excited, I haven´t spoken
And she´s so pretty, and she´s so sure
