Seventeen, ran away
It only lasted for three days
From The Valley to La
Took the bus, no clue
Feet bruised from my new shoes
See the poseurs on Melrose Avenue
Backyard parties where we'd dress like boys
Operation Ivy was our drug of choice
My friends band's playing at their lockout space
Brandon with the mohawk says it starts at eight
Yeah, I know how this ends and I'd watch it again
Every loss and win
Through the growing pains and the awkward phase
From The Valley to La
In our garage, no school
Wishing we were punks from eighty-two
From The Valley, well get away
Catch a ride to The Glasshouse
Minivan your mom let us take out
That stage felt so far away those days
Backyard parties where we'd dress like boys
Operation Ivy was our drug of choice
My friend's band's playing at their lockout space
Brandon with the mohawk says it starts at eight
Yeah, I know how this ends and I'd watch it again
Every loss and win
Through the growing pains and the awkward phase
From The Valley to La
Yeah, I know how this ends and I'd watch it again
Every loss and win
Through the growing pains and the awkward phase
From The Valley to La
Yeah, I know how this ends and I'd watch it again
Enemies and friends
Through the gray decay of this beautiful place
From The Valley to La
To La
To La
To La
To La
