"Cool Kids" Lyrics:

She sees them walking in a straight line, that's not really her style
They all got the same heartbeat, but hers is falling behind
Nothing in this world could ever bring them down
Yeah, they're invincible and she's just in the background

And she says

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

He sees them talking with a big smile, but they haven't got a clue
Yeah, they're living the good life, can't see what he is going through
They're driving fast cars, but they don't know where they're going
In the fast lane, living life without knowing

And he says

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to get it
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

And they said

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to get it
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

I'm loving this version. The original gives me a roadtrip-y vibe while this one gives me a lazy, bedroom, chilling vibe. 

[intruative]

I think acoustic makes everything more.. Emotional. Love it :)

[BrittanyMcp]

It doesn't matter if your 13 or 24 years old, I feel like this is a song that everyone can relate to. We all yearn for that sense of belonging. Beautifully done. 

[IsmailTuncel]

This song needs to be listened endlessly! Just discoverd .. still wondering why was I so late to hear this!

[Gem]

Brought tears to my eyes in the middle of class. Teacher asked what was up with me and I just replied in a muffled teary reply "its just too beautiful".

Wow. After hearing Cool Kids on the radio a million times (and loving it each time), I finally looked up Echosmith. I never realized how young they were, or that they were siblings. It makes their success even more impressive. 

[Voltaic]

Sound track of my life and many others' too sadly. I love the amount of relate-ability and passion that is in this song. Great job guys!

[mozat]

I'm 26, but I'm happy when I hear this song in our radio in Malaysia, the melody, it reminds me of my good old school days.. Thanks :))

[leae]

I've been listening to this song nonstop. Love it!!!

[danielcalaway]

acoustic always seems to flow smoothly! Cant wait to be at Vans Warped Tour in Mesa AZ with my buddy in a few weeks and see you guys play!

[abkooblis]

why is that i just now found you guys?! you guys are amazing, you guys are gonna go far

[DawsonCowals]

I think these stripped down acoustic mixes are possibly even more powerful and poignant than the full-band versions! Love the cello and upright bass on this! Just wish you had included an acoustic version of Bright too! The whole EP is fantastic!

[peachfroggg_]

The Acoustic Version is even more powerful and a bit sad then the original! Good Job!

[NosterToaster]

This song is my OBSESSION! How did it take me over a year to find it??? Echosmith is amazing, i heard them first on Wolf Watch and ever since loved them!

[roshibajackson]

absolutely love this version! and vocalist has a great voice! definitely a fave (:

[saltybugger]

Wish I would hear more Echosmith on the radio! You guys ROCK. EVERY song you do is a testament to each of your talents as musicians. You all have a great future ahead of you!! I'm 50 and there isn't a single song that you do that I don't like. Your acoustic stuff is FANTASTIC!!!

[tabberella]

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I somehow stumbled upon your music and I'm so incredibly glad I did. <3

[jay-qcps]

Saw them at Warped in Michigan and instantly fell in love. Their voices are insane.
