The Magic of Youth Lyrics

Five years ago

I was sleeping alone

Had a heart made of glass

And a mind made of stone

Age old scars

Said If I pushed hard

I might get far

But I thought I'd get farther

Knees on the ground

Screaming "WHY ME!"

A fist to the sky

Bloody knuckles and dreams

Time flies by

There's only change

And I start to wonder

If it's me or this place

How do you let go

Of that fantasy you hold?

When you were all alone

& time felt like it didn't matter

How do you move on

When you just don't know?

If the future is better than what you've known

Or is there only getting old?

I fell in love

A couple of times

Thought that I won

Thought they were right

Couldn't get enough

So drunk on the high

Of that kind of life

Before You and I

Dancing between

Money and fame

Falling in love

Building a name

Swore there'd be a day

I was inside

That masterful play

Living my best life

How do you let go

Of that fantasy you hold?

When you were all alone

& time felt like it didn't matter

How do you move on

When you just don't know?

If the future is better than what you've known

Or is there only getting old?

You say if I still feel like a teen

There might be something

I never had

That I am still chasing

The simple truth

The magic of youth

The magic of youth

The magic of you and I

Still haunts me

How do you let go

Of that fantasy you hold?

When you were all alone

& time felt like it didn't matter

How do you move on

When you just don't know?

If the future is better than what you've known

Or is there only getting old?
