Youth Is Wasted On The Young

The past is dead
I walk the funeral march and I will make my peace
If we stop the clock, will I reappear?
Pulled from the drift
There goes another year
The stars align, the planets shift
All the infinite moments that we’ve missed
There’s parts of me that are lost forever
At least we’re all lost together
We all remember youth like it’s dead and gone
Like our favourite line, from a forgotten song
I’ll show you my hurt and I’ll show you my heart
A life lost in the dark
The past is dead
I walk the funeral march and I will make my peace
When I reach the end, will I beg for more?
Will I look back? Or step through the door?
I stand beneath a monolith
Do you ever feel like you won’t be missed?
There’s parts of me that are lost forever
At least we’re all lost together
I heard that this was only a ride
So there’s no worth in waiting for death to arrive
All we are, is just a name, it’s all we are
Our skin, it shows, these crippled bones
Youth sinks alone
I’ll show you my hurt and I’ll show you my heart
A life lost in the dark.
There’s parts of me that are lost forever
At least we’re all lost together
