Thirteen from Oh Humanity by The Belle Sounds

THIRTEEN ©Noëlle Hampton 2023

Don’t you remember that part of your life
When every moment was the end all be all of time
Don’t you remember you were sadder than sad
And the smallest opinion made you wish you were dead

When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen

Don’t you remember every love that you felt
Left a crater in your heart, oh it hurt like hell
You must remember how you hated your friends
Then five minutes later you were best friends again

When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen

Oh yeah, we made it out alive
I still can’t believe that’s true
Oh yeah, it’s something we survived
Only the lucky ones do

Don’t you remember hiding out in your room
Getting high on everything you could consume
Don’t you remember letting boys have their way
You were so scared of everything but you didn’t want to say

When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen

Don’t you remember feeling stuck in your skin
When everyone was beautiful and perfect and thin
If you can’t remember, well that’s a god damn shame
‘Cause it built you into everything that you became

When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen

Oh yeah, we made it out alive
I still can’t believe that’s true
Oh yeah, it’s something we survived
Only the lucky ones do

Don’t you remember when you were thirteen?
Don’t you remember when you were thirteen?
When you were thirteen
When you were thirteen
