Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Final bell and sunburned dreams
We spilled out into June
Skateboards, busted lockers,
Spring love fading too soon
Captain from a plastic bottle,
Passed around by headlights’ glow
Smithville Lake and half a plan —
Nowhere else to go

Fists flew in the backyard ring
Someone’s brother called the law
Kegs rolled in like furniture
We never even paused
Scraped-up knees and borrowed wheels
Livin’ like we couldn’t die
Young, dumb, and bulletproof
Just chasin’ that high

[Chorus]
We were someone’s kids, thinkin’ we were grown
Runnin’ through life like we owned the road
Late night fires and borrowed time
Etched in the edge of a County Line
Hearts on fire, heads in the clouds
We were wild, we were loud

[Verse 2]
Some built homes, some still drift,
Some names we only speak in prayer
Like Jami’s on that folding chair —
No one else belongs there
We grew up, but that old spark
Still flickers deep behind our eyes
A year, a laugh, a reckless dream —
It never really dies

[Chorus]
We were someone’s kids, thinkin’ we were grown
Runnin’ through life like we owned the road
Late night fires and borrowed time
Etched in the edge of a County Line
Hearts on fire, heads in the clouds
We were wild, we were loud

[Bridge]
We raise a glass when we meet again
Some stories fade, but never end

[Final Chorus]
We were someone’s kids, thinkin’ we were grown
Lost in a summer we called our own
Still feel it sometimes late at night
That porch light glow, those fearless highs
Hearts on fire, heads in the clouds
We were wild, we were loud

[Outro]
Yeah, we were wild, we were loud
