It's the Fourth of July
My friends wanna catch the tide
How I wanna go, but I'll stay home
Wish you could stay the night
But I am scared of the light
I don't want you to go, oh-oh, oh

I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready

And now I'm out of school
And I met someone new
Does she just like me for the things I do?
Now I've got nothing to prove
But my mind still goes back to you
And being young and having nothing to lose

I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready

If I could crawl out of my own skin, would you let me in?
If we could just be those kids again, maybe I could swim

I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready

I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready
