Grew up in the same house
So I know why you lash out
Oh, I understand you
More than you think I do

Cracks in the windows
Castles in pillows
And all of the places
I built us to hide

I always left you out
You still love me somehow
You just wanted a friend
Didn't know it then, but now I do

Our youth down the drain
And I'll take all of the blame
For all of the countless
Times that you cried

Just two kids caught in the crossfire
Close your eyes, I know you're so tired
Just kids, you and I, I know it's hard sometimes
But you'll be alright

And we'll be alright
All that's unspoken
All the years that were stolen
You were still in that house

I shouldn't have left you behind
And I fall to pieces
Sometimes, all you need is
A shoulder to cry

And I'm lucky that you're mine
Just two kids caught in the crossfire
Close your eyes, I know you're so tired
Just kids, you and I, I know it's hard sometimes

But you'll be alright
And we'll be alright
We'll never change
What time fades

Oh-oh
Just two kids caught in the crossfire
Just close your eyes, I know you're so tired
Just kids, you and I, I know it's hard sometimes

But you'll be alright
And we'll be alright
