Youth Is Wasted on the Young

We used to be so fearless Like every chance would be the last Living as life was endless Breaking hearts, and loving fast Another day, and life's a party Another drink, and I was game Every night have me restarted And I would drink away the pain We did everything we wanted And life was nothing, but a game Life was great when we were wrong We were careless and had fun But now those days are gone Youth is wasted on the young We carried on Wanted somewhere to belong We were always on the run Youth is wasted on the young Thought we could do much better We had blind hope in our eyes Never believed in later Always living for the night Took it all for granted But how easily we broke Thought it'd last forever Life was nothing, but a joke We did everything we wanted And life was nothing, but a game Life was great when we were wrong We were careless and had fun But now those days are gone Youth is wasted on the young We carried on Wanted somewhere to belong We were always on the run Youth is wasted on the young How fast the years went by Where did they go I felt so lost back then I just didn't know Wanted it all faster Patience close to none Didn't know much better We were just having fun Life was great when we were wrong We were careless and had fun But now those days are gone Youth is wasted on the young We carried on Wanted somewhere to belong We were always on the run Youth is wasted on the young
