I know looking back
Makes it seem like nothing's changed at all
But if it didn't work back then
How could it work now?
We're not those kids anymore
Stuck in a town we never liked
Chasing each other around in circles
Like it was all just a game
We grew up
And so much changed
But you're still searching for yesterday
We used to be
But we're not anymore
Move on and don't look back
We used to be
But we're not anymore
Every memory gets brighter
The further away it goes
But nostalgia paints a picture
That never really existed at all
I see you digging up a past
That sometimes only lives
Inside your reckless, childish mind
We were a beautiful mess
We were teenage disasters
And not every first love
Is meant to last forever
Some are meant to end
We used to be
But we're not anymore
Move on and don't look back
We used to be
But we're not anymore
We used to be
We used to be
Some stories end for a reason
Some hearts let go to heal
We used to be
But we're not anymore
