Youth Lyrics

T-shirt like a canvas of the day before

Sand under my fingers from drawing hearts along the shore

Every day getting older

So why do I feel so young

Is it all just a conspiracy

These days numbered ahead of me

Is it all just a conspiracy…

Break out

Of the fences they built around us

Heart beat

Racing wildly towards the sun

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

So I run ooh-oh-ooh I run

No my youth won't be wasted on the young

There's a language only you and I can speak

Back yard trampoline flips cause we have nowhere else to be

They think it's time that we're wasting

But all we are is so young

It's all just a conspiracy

These days numbered ahead of me

It's all just a conspiracy…

Break out

Of the fences they built around us

Heart beat

Racing wildly towards the sun

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

So I run ooh-oh-ooh I run

No my youth won't be wasted on the young

Hiding in the blackberries

My best days around me

Hanging in the jungle trees

My best days around me

All I breathe is opportunity

My best days around me

Break out

Of the fences they built around us

Heart beat

Racing wildly towards the sun

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

My youth won't be wasted,

Wasted on the young

So I run ooh-oh-ooh I run

No my youth won't be wasted on the young

Wasted on the young

No my youth

Won't be wasted on the young
