A song about two people that grew up together but were fored to be enemies because their famil don’t like each other but despite that they still get close and become livers in the end
Lyrics
(ooh, ooh) uh-huh, yeah
(na-na, na-na) ah-ah
We grew up on the same cracked street, same summer sun
You wore my sister's old jacket; I called you my best one
Carved both our names in the elm by the corner store
Two kids with scraped knees, each day wanting more
Your dad taught you to throw like a man, my mama taught me to stand
Then a rumor jumped the fence and a line was drawn in sand
At school we traded lunch for secrets, kept each other's plans
At night we swore we'd never let those lines hold our hands
They drew the map, colored the sides, said pick a side, be brave (be brave)
They spread the tales like wildfire, but we met in the cave (shh)
We learned to speak in glances, in the dark we would behave (uh-huh)
Like nothing that they said could ever teach us how to hate
They said "choose a side" — we chose each other, we chose each other (we chose each other)
They said "keep your distance" — we held on tighter, we held on tighter (we held on tighter)
We were born like strangers under names that burned like thunder
They drew the line, we crossed it — we crossed it for each other
We chose each other, we chose each other
At family dinners, knives of words sliced through the room
Your mother kept her eyes cold, like winter in June
Neighbors took bets on feud, on which tilt we'd fall to
But we learned how to laugh quiet and how to slip right through
You left me notes in hollow trees, I left you breath on glass
We built a tiny kingdom where the past couldn't trespass
They staged their phone calls, made sure the rumor would last
But your hand in mine was louder than the headlines of the past
They taught us how to hate slow, to carry grudge and weight (carry weight)
We traded secret maps and plans and met by the old gate (meet me)
We practiced stealing mornings, we practiced breaking fate (break fate)
Like nothing that they said could teach us how to stop
They said "choose a side" — we chose each other, we chose each other (we chose each other)
They said "keep your distance" — we held on tighter, we held on tighter (we held on tighter)
We were boxed with labels, told our names would never wander
They drew the line, we crossed it — we crossed it for each other
We chose each other, we chose each other
So we ran at midnight, laughing through the rain (ha)
Left letters on the porch saying we won't play their game
Packed two bags, one small car, no looking back, no shame
Said "we'll write our story in a script without a name" (without a name)
Your hand was warm, my heart was loud, the road was ours to claim (ours to claim)
We found a tiny house with cracked paint and a stubborn flame
We planted beans and stubborn flowers, called them by our names
And every Sunday morning we invited the past to stay — and watch us rise
They said "choose a side" — we chose eac
