He was a little bit Emo, he loved his sweaters and his Thursday too

While she was talking about Ian, he was dreaming of Brand New

She was a little bit hardcore, wore a Bane shirt and had an edge tattoo

While he sang Taking Back Sunday, she was moshing with her crew



She showed him times gone by, he showed her how to cry

They both thought Chris Carrabba was the world's cutest guy

He sang her songs all day, she loved him anyway

They lived in different worlds, but hey that's ok



He didn't get the connection, seen a few shows that was all he knew

And so she played him the classics, and now he loves hardcore too

That day they finally realized, both their scenes are one big family

And if it wasn't for hardcore, then Emo would never be



Sometimes she'd play him music while they'd lie together in the dark

He finally heard old Fugazi, he said, "this sounds like bear vs. shark"

(oh, no!)  We're not the first, I know we're not the last

The kids will always take the rock away, c'mon, ;let's start today
