The Best Of Me - The Starting Line (Lyrics)

NO Copyright intended. I do NOT own the the song or lyrics.
--Lyrics:--
tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up
here we lay again
on two separate beds
riding phone lines
to meet a familiar voice
and pictures drawn from memory
we reflect on miscommunication
and misunderstandings
and missing each other too
much to have had to let go
we turn our music down
and we whisper
say what your thinking right now
tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up
jumping to conclusions
made me fall away from you
i'm so glad that the truth
has brought back together me and you
we're sitting on the ground
and we whisper
say what your thinking outloud
tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up
we turn our music down
and we whisper
we're sitting on the ground
and we whisper
we turn our music down
we're sitting on the ground
and next time i'm in town
we will kiss girl
we will kiss girl
tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont
feeling that we cant
we're not ready to give up
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

    11 years. It took me to find this song. Only heard it once in gym class. They played while we ran one day.. the once in a spencers store.. before had a smartphone.. i tried humming the chorus off memory. But last night my girlfriend found it. I cant stop listening🤘🤘

    This song takes me back to the 2010’s. The best years. The coolest cartoons and video games, not to mention music. Pop punk has always resonated with me, not because it’s loud and rambunctious, but because it’s nonsensical and entertaining, as am I. It can talk about genuinely sweet topics, as seen here, but other times it can just be silly and fun.

    Yup. Takes me back to high school, when I couldn't decide whether I was a punk, prep, jock or nerd, so I did all of them badly. A time when I thought I had everything figured out while simultaneously being completely lost. Falling for girls I didn't know and selling ditch weed to my friend's dad. Good times.

    SEPTEMBER 2021, my first day back at school from over a year and a half due to COVID was a few days away. I randomly find a video for this band called The Starting Line on KZread for a song “The Best Of Me” I remember seeing a long time ago. From that moment on Say It Like You Mean it changed my life. I was 16 going into the 11th grade head over heels for a girl I had been chasing since I was 13. That year was a time I wish I could relive and go back to. I can still see myself stepping off the bus walking into my school blasting “Decisions, Decisions” in my headphones with my baggy Dickie’s and blacked out Vans. Going over and over in my head how I was going to approach that girl who would then later become my girlfriend (now Ex-girlfriend) Here I am the same time of year now newly dropped off for my first year of college listening to this same song and same record blown away with where time has gone. Make every moment count people, you never know that certain times became life changing moments until they are gone.
