Memories Like Moldy Pizza Boxes: The Feels Hit Hard
The song opens with a gut punch of nostalgia: "Memories / That I thought were lost / You and me / In the front of your car" We've all been there, haven't we? Stumbling upon a forgotten photo or an old song that transports you back to a simpler time, maybe even a time with a certain someone (cue dramatic music).
QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.
Fun Fact: Did you know the "front of your car" can be a metaphor for the peak of a relationship? Deep, right? Or maybe Austin Blue just preferred making out in drive-in theaters. No judgement.

Teenage Angst: A Recipe for Disaster
"I'm seventeen / Just you and me / And anxiety / And cigarettes" Ah, the glorious teenage years. A time of raging hormones, crippling self-doubt, and enough cigarette smoke to choke out a small forest. But hey, at least you had someone to share the existential dread with, right?
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.
Warning: Sharing a pack of cigarettes with your crush does not guarantee a happily ever after. Please consult your local physician for alternative methods of wooing.
QuickTip: Take a pause every few paragraphs.

The Afterglow (or Afterburn?): The Mess Gets Real
"And our home after work / I touched." This line is short, sweet, and oh-so-ambiguous. Were they reminiscing about a cozy post-shift cuddle session, or was this a more, ahem, passionate encounter at their after-work hangout? The beauty of music, my friends, is the ability to project your own messy experiences onto the lyrics.
PSA: If your idea of a good time involves questionable activities at your after-work hangout, maybe re-evaluate your life choices (just kidding... mostly).
