Mild profanity, subtle intimacy, mature emotional themes
These lyrics appear to be from 'Start of Nothin'' by Oliver Tree or a similar indie/alternative artist. The song deals with a past romantic relationship, nostalgia, and emotional complexity. There is one instance of mild profanity ('didn't give a fuck'), and the line 'had you going crazy, screamin' my name' carries a mild sexual undertone suggesting past physical intimacy. The reference to 'ivory's illegal' is somewhat cryptic but may reference drug use (ivory/white substances). Overall, the content is largely introspective and emotionally mature, touching on heartbreak, nostalgia, and the passage of youth. The language is mostly clean, the romantic themes are present but not graphic, and there is no overt violence or heavy drug/alcohol content. The mild profanity and subtle sexual undertone, combined with the emotionally complex themes of heartbreak and identity, make this more suitable for teenagers 13 and older with some parental awareness.

I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you love me The start of nothin' I had no chance to prepare, I couldn't see you comin' The start of nothin' Ooh, I could hate you now It's quite alright to hate me now When we both know that deep down The feeling still deep down is good If I could see through walls I could see you're faking If you could see my thoughts You would see our faces Safe in my rental like an armored truck back then We didn't give a fuck back then I ain't a kid no more We'll never be those kids again We'd drive to Syd's, had the back then Back then No matter what I did My waves wouldn't dip back then Everything sucked back then We were friends I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you loved me The start of nothin' I had no chance to prepare, I couldn't see you comin' The start of nothin' Ooh, I could hate you now It's quite alright to hate me now But we both know that deep down The feeling still deep down is good In the halls of your hotel Arm around my shoulder so I could tell How much I meant to you, meant it sincere back then We had time to kill back then You ain't a kid no more We'll never be those kids again It's not the same, ivory's illegal Don't you remember? I broke your heart last week You'll probably feel better by the weekend Still remember, had you going crazy Screamin' my name The feeling deep down is good I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you loved me The start of nothin' I had no chance to prepare, couldn't see you comin' And we started from nothin' Ooh, I could hate you now It's alright to hate me now We both know that deep down The feeling still deep down is good All the things I didn't mean to say I didn't mean to do There were things you didn't need to say Did you mean to? Mean to? I've been dreamin' of you, dreamin' of you I've been dreamin' of you, dreamin' of you I've been dreamin', dreamin'
