Teenager Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I climbed your arms
Then you pulled away
New cavity moved into
My heart today
The more she sings
The more it seems
Now, oh
[Chorus]
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
New you
[Verse 2]
I drove you home
Then you moved away
New cavity moved into
My heart today
The more I scream
The more it seems
Now I'm through
[Chorus]
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
New you
I climbed your arms
Then you pulled away
New cavity moved into
My heart today
The more she sings
The more it seems
Now, oh
[Chorus]
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
New you
[Verse 2]
I drove you home
Then you moved away
New cavity moved into
My heart today
The more I scream
The more it seems
Now I'm through
[Chorus]
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
Now I'm through
With the new you
New you
About
Genius Annotation
This song is about how Chino fell for this girl (“I climbed your arms”), how she ignored him and didn’t return that love (“And you moved away”), and how this killed him inside.
Written by Chino when he was only 15, it is one of the first songs that displayed Deftones' new direction in the early 2000s, as it is has strong elements of both shoegaze and trip hop influences.
This is often viewed as a spiritual predecessor to “Lucky You” from their self-titled album.
