Kids

Coming to terms with things on a comedown On a train across the city that I no longer love Taking me straight to the edge of our nowhere town Oh, what a pity to see the lives we let go of Thinking back on the summer When that even meant anything When I was a young man waiting for my life to begin We were throwing stones at the sky Aiming for the moon Hitting the windows on the lighthouse We gave up too soon With the sand at my feet The people around were the air that I breathe We could stay young forever Forever Set fire to a cruel world And the hearts of the cool girls Sometimes, I wonder where you've been 'Cause I heard you got sober, moved away Then someone died and you were never the same again I guess your time came and went With the sand at my feet People around were the air that I breathe We could stay young forever Forever Was it all in my mind? 'Cause everyone else grew older in time I'll be alone forever Forever With the sand at my feet The people around were the air that I breathe We could stay young forever Forever With the sand at my feet (we were just kids) The people around were the air that I breathe (we were just kids) We could stay young forever (we were just kids) Together Was it all in my mind? (We were just kids) 'Cause everyone else grew older in time (we were just kids) I'll be alone forever (we were just kids) Together (we were just kids) Who knew any better than this? (We were just kids) All the hours spent wasted (we know nothing) We were just kids (we were just kids) We were just kids (we were just kids) Who knew any better than this? (We were just kids) All the hours spent wasted (we know nothing) We were just kids (we were just kids) We were just kids (we were just kids) And you can leave home, never look back Change your names, cover your tracks And you might get lost from time to time 'Cause you're still just a kid trying to survive
