We Know Not

"Amen", I said, from the third row

Off to bed by ten, it's all that I know

And I'm too young to die, but too old to cry, that's what I'm told

I'm too young to think that there might not be a tomorrow

Tomorrow

I'm buying my time for now, 'cause it don't cost much

When we're young, when we're young

But I'm losing my sense of how long I have left

When we're young, when we're young, we know not

We know not

"Wear your coat", she said, "Don't want you to freeze"

"I know", I said, "'Cause I'm smart as can be"

But I leave it at home so I can prove I'm not weak

And nothing that bad could ever happen to me

Happen to me

I'm buying my time for now, 'cause it don't cost much

When we're young, when we're young

But I'm losing my sense of how long I have left

When we're young, when we're young, we know not

When we're young, when we're young, we know not

And if this is a dream, if this is a dream

I don't wanna wake up, don't wanna put on makeup

Don't wanna face the liars, corruption of the minds

That happens over time 'cause

Everybody's chasin' somethin' that they wasted

Wasted

I don't wanna wake up, don't wanna put on makeup

Don't wanna face the liars, corruption of the minds

That happens over time 'cause

Everybody's chasin' somethin' that they wasted

Wasted

I'm buying my time for now, 'cause it don't cost much

But I'm losing my sense of how long I have left

When we're young, when we're young, we know not
