to be young
Embracing Chaos: The Essence of Youth
Lyrics
They tell me I should make a plan for life
They advise me to plan my life.
cll I'm thinking bout is what to do tonight
All I'm contemplating is what to do tonight.
Hundred miles an hour no headlights
Speeding at a hundred miles per hour without headlights.
On an open road, home
On an open road, heading home.
We do what we can to dull the pain
We do what we can to numb the pain.
Pinky promise things will stay the same
Promising that things will remain unchanged.
Even when I'm old I'll know your name
Even when I'm old, I'll remember your name.
cnywhere we go, oh
Anywhere we go, oh.
Dye my hair a million colours
Dye my hair a million colors.
Dream I'll make a billion dollars
Dreaming I'll make a billion dollars.
I swear that day can't come soon enough
Anticipating that day can't come soon enough.
In the meantime, we just
Meanwhile, we just...
Fall in love, broken heart
Experience love, heartbreak.
Break the rules, drink too much
Defy rules, indulge in excessive drinking.
We're all a mess, but I guess
We're all a mess, but I suppose...
This is what it feels like to be young
This is the essence of being young.
Take a punch, get back up
Take a hit, rise again.
cct a fool, make a fuss
Act foolishly, create a scene.
We're all a mess, but I guess
We're all a mess, but I suppose...
This is what it feels like to be young
This is what it feels like to be young.
This can't be real life
Questioning if this is real life.
Don't even feel high
Not even feeling elevated.
Maybe if you take one with me
Suggesting that taking one with me might make it feel right.
Then it'll feel right
Unwilling to know what standing still feels like.
Don't want to know what
Desiring to fit in.
Standing still would even feel like
Wondering if standing still would even feel like.
Wanted to fit in
Wanted to fit in.
When I didn't, now I know
When I didn't, now I know.
cnd I just want freedom
And I just want freedom.
Can't be lonely
Cannot be lonely.
Heartless, hopeful, stupid, phoney
Heartless, hopeful, stupid, phony.
Say they love me, but won't show me
Claiming they love me but won't show me.
Guess this is how it feels like to be young
Assuming this is the reality of being young.
Fall in love, broken heart
Experience love, heartbreak.
Break the rules, drink too much
Defy rules, indulge in excessive drinking.
We're all a mess, but I guess
We're all a mess, but I suppose...
This is what it feels like to be young
This is what it feels like to be young.
Take a punch, get back up
Take a hit, rise again.
cct a fool, make fuss
Act foolishly, create a scene.
We're all a mess, but I guess
We're all a mess, but I suppose...
This is what it feels like to be young
This is what it feels like to be young.
(Ya oh oh ho, ya oh oh ho
(Yeah, oh oh ho, yeah oh oh ho.
This is what it feels like to be young, be young)
This is what it feels like to be young, be young.)
This is what it feels like to be young
This is what it feels like to be young.
