Jealous of Youth

V5.5

[Intro] The world is on fire Stinging heat in the air Burning but nothing hurts Fireproof kid without a care [Verse 1] Raced for every sunset Didn’t know to ask why We’re drawn to the unknown At the edge of the sky [Pre-Chorus] As the shadows kept growing Time was slipping away The light we chased so freely Was quietly calling us to… [Chorus] Reflect on The days of the past When your dirty little friends Were having a blast So damn sure It’d always be that way But something so golden Was never gonna stay Reflecting on The stories you made Wondering if the memories Were ever gonna fade Suddenly you’ve fallen In the moment of truth Unexpectedly you are Jealous of youth [Verse 2] We pretend the night is young We wake at dawn feeling old We chase the flame to stay warm So hearts don’t fade in the cold We know less than we think We think more than we know We grow up way too fast Then wish the time went slow [Bridge] Your heart starts racing Drawn again to the flame You feel the fires burning But it can never be the same. There’s no shame to desire The memories of youth A chance to light the fire To feel the heat again, first accept the truth [Solo] [Verse 3] We know less than we think We think more than we know We grow up way too fast Then wish the time went slow Greet today with open eyes See the lines years have made Warmth and love in our lives It’s a spirit time won’t fade [Outro] Look back on The days of the past When your dirty little friends Were having a blast So damn sure It’d always be that way But something so golden Also came with some pain Reflecting on The stories you made Wondering if the memories Were ever gonna fade Once you’ve accepted The honest truth There’s no reason left To be jealous of youth
