Saying that we're young
And dying to be old
Crying out for freedom
But never wanting to grow old
And I'm here, here I am, hello
In the midst of teenage angst
Trying hard to be so much more
Than we are, it's too far, too far to go
Oh how, oh how are we supposed to know
We go far, driving fast
Getting by from the sadness in our lives
We get high, time goes by occupied
By the sadness behind our eyes
And why, oh why are we dropping one by one like flies
We say we're young, we're strong
And fast but is that enough to have to say goodbye
To all the close friends in our lives
Is it time, is it a way to justify
Dying before twenty
Is it time to say goodbye
To all your best friends
We go far, driving fast
Getting by from the sadness in our lives
We get high, time goes by occupied
By the sadness behind our eyes
And we're fine, yes, we're fine
We'll get high and go for a ride
It's ok, we are young we can't die
The smoke to each others high
The time we get by
And we'll drink our sorrows away
So we can feel even worse the following day
So let's lose control
'Cause it's all just one big joke
Oh, oh, oh
It's all for fun, it's all a joke
That's all we care about
Cause we're young
We only want our fun
No consequences, no, invincible
It's fun, it's all for fun
Until somebody's gone
And we'll drown our sorrows tonight
And if this idea meant
If we stay the same
We waste away, we waste away
And we'll say it's because
We were young and stupid
