verse 2

now i’m out with my skateboard and pushin so hard , i’m pushin so hard .

i wanna see if i can see if you’re still home

but the lights weren’t on and you were gone

so on my way home alone i took a shortcut through the park

and just my luck , i saw you sitting in his truck

you were making out with him in the dark , whoa whoa

chorus

change in tempo ( faster )

“why’d you go and change your mind
you can pick and choose
but with him you’re gonna lose
every ti – ti – ti – ti – time

chorus ( fast )
