For the Young

Anyone in there?

Knock, knock, knock

I think I see you

Among the shadows

They still cling to the wall

And your mind feeds them

You're the victim of

Lack of meanin'

Feeling sorry is

Your favorite feeling

Why am I supposed to excuse you?

Nod my head as if I'm amused

Give me a reason to lay down my guns

Who said youth is only

For the young?

You shut out the light

In your home

And all that remains

The echo of laughter

Someone left it there

Half a a lifetime ago

Why am I supposed to excuse you?

Nod my head as if I'm amused

Give me a reason to lay down my guns

Who said youth is

Why am I supposed to excuse you?

Nod my head as if I'm amused

Give me a reason to lay down my guns

Who said youth is only

For the young?

Why am I supposed to excuse you?

Nod my head as if I'm amused

You never gave up, you never begun

Who said youth is only

For the young?
