We're racing through the dark
On a road along the shore
And the law says we should stop
So we break a couple more
With the windows all down
We just throw the cans out
And now you're laughin' through the wind
Swearin' we won't do it again
We're off too much now
Pay off sells itself
We cough too much now
But we're too young for ourselves
We're racing through the dark
Down the beach by the pier
And you ran into the sea
Like a cop without fear
You're gonna ruin your shoes!
You're gonna ruin your shoes!
And you're wading through the bay
Like you do it everyday
We're off too much now
Pay off sells itself
We cough too much now
But we're too young for ourselves
The bay's so uncertain
It's too cold, but we swim
The rain could come at any moment
The gray sky's closing in
Girl, just kiss me
I couldn't sleep for days
And I couldn't move
You couldn't come too soon
To break me from that room
And now I'll sleep for days
But in a different place
We're off too much now
Pay off sells itself
We cough too much now
But we're too young for ourselves
