lyrics

Took flight last winter
Just to see the snow on the ground
As it falls to earth
Through everything
We are guided wildly throughout this motion picture-like set you built for yourself last fall

We are the young ones
We lack all reasoning
If we claim what they have then we wouldn’t gain a thing
Why does the world decide to get involved when we are on a roll?
Just because our lives are unconventional

We are the young ones

Came all the way home
Just to see the looks on your faces when you found out high school was a joke
We are pushed on eagerly by all the smiles and egos of people we wish that we didn’t know

We are the young ones
We lack all reasoning
When we say what we feel then it doesn’t mean a thing
Why does the world decide to get involved and tell us what to do?
Deliberate the truth and push their views on you

We are the young ones

And don’t promise me the waves
Cause they can’t reach me where I stand
Caught off guard and close to shore
What lies beyond trails left in sand
Never will I ever try to figure it out
My mind’s in such an awful place to paint another piece of the picture plain and obvious to see
I think I’d rather have a chance than give up without even fighting for it
Time has been so very cruel to me

Took flight last winter
Just to see the snow on the ground
As it falls to earth
Through everything
We are guided wildly throughout this motion picture-like set you built for yourself last fall
