Your Validation

You think you're something else, but you can't hide
 That there's more to you than meets the eye
 Between the local brews and coffee shops and vinyl records
 This wagon hopping is quite the endeavor
 Long ago I stood right by
 While you swung your arms from side to side
 I guess those trips we took to Warped Tour never really happened
 You still owe me $ for tickets
 Flash back
 A Linkin Park hoodie with some checkered kicks
 Posting on your MySpace dissing your haters
 Blasting Papa Roach from your Motorola Razr
 A tough day of middle school has got you feeling down
 Yet you're the coolest kid in town
 I remember, we all remember
 You've had that same smug look since December
 Indirectly braggadocios
 You really thought we wouldn't notice?
 A phase is a phase, but you're stuck in a maze
 How long until the next one?
 You learned about Hot Topic in
 Long neon hair, all the sudden real straight
 Playing breakdowns at the high school talent show
 Nobody really gets it, it's kind of embarrassing
 Before you know it you start claiming edge
 Double X's are pretty hardcore I guess
 You break a girl's teeth crowd-killing every week
 I don't really get how you haven't gotten sued yet
 It's now and we're back to pop punk for some reason
 You're also quite the social justice warrior
 Even though you called people "faggot" pretty regularly that previous summer
 But good on you, progress is progress, I won't judge
 I remember, we all remember
 You've had that same smug look since December
 Indirectly braggadocios
 You really thought we wouldn't notice?
 A phase is a phase, but you're stuck in a maze
 How long until the next one?
 I'm also pretty sure there was an EDM phase
 Somewhere along the way
 It was like four straight weeks of just EDM music (Music music?)
 He also starting vaping, which was kind of weird, out of character
 (You said music twice)
 What's next on the list?
 It can't be that much better
 Than a creepy-ass mustache and a DIY sweater
 If this is the life that the want, then so be it
 I'll be waiting here next year admiring the spirit
