Sixteen - Pink Mountaintops

While the people stood around and stared

We were racing past the walls

Outside the bars of innocence

Where we could steal it all…

While the people stood around and stared

We were racing past the walls

Outside the bars of innocence

Where we could steal it all

Sixteen was the sound of smashing glass just for kicks

And running from the car alarms down Yates and Douglas strip

Break the circle, babies

Chase them underground

Suburban rage rose above the boredom of this town

And all we want tonight is to fall in love 'neath the midnight sky

When the morning bell starts ringing

Like razors in your head

Teacher she don’t understand

All the lies that she’s been fed

There’s a current that is burning and begging to be free

Downtown where the action is

Gimme something to believe
