Youth Is Wasted by the Young Lyrics & Tabs by The Trouble
Youth Is Wasted by the Young
guitar chords lyrics
You were only 13 when you had your first fuck
cause at the age of 12 you were a certified drunk
sneaking home through the window so late at night
don't want your parents to see that you had another fight
your new friends are all older and you feel so cool
smoking butts in the back lot and skipping school
but you can't see they started out just like you
grew up too fast, now in the welfare queue
And you're wishing, and wanting to be so much older
and your life and your dreams are getting so much colder
and you don't know what you have, and now the song is sung
you've forgotten what it's like to be young
The days roll by and the nights are a blur
getting fucked up all the time but always quite sure
that things will work out and it'll be just fine
The days roll by and the nights are a blur
getting fucked up all the time but always quite sure
that things will work out and it'll be just fine
but you can't see you're just a fucking lie
your childhood friends can't look you in the face
cause you ditched them long ago and they feel betrayed
besides most of them have moved, got lives of their own
and you're still unemployed and living at home
And you're wishing and wanting to take it all back
cause your life and your dreams are rotted and cracked
you're sick and you're tired of the things you've done and seen
cause you're an old man at the age of eighteen
