Youth Is Wasted On The Young

Saw my reflection in the mirror, didn't recognize myself
 I felt more distant and more useless than the dust upon the shelf
 
 I tried to fix it but I only ended up hurting someone else
 Oh lover can you hear me, I'm so scared and I need a little help
 
 I've built so many bridges, then I sat and watched them burn
 I had so many chances, never took the time to learn
 If I could change the past, go back erase what I had done
 I'd redo everything, youth is wasted on the young
 Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk
 Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk
 You can't take back everything you've done
 Youth is wasted on the young
 Youth is wasted on the young
 ♪
 Even the thought of me without you sends a shiver down my spine
 I'd spend a lifetime on my knees for just the chance to keep you mine
 
 And like a rocket I shot up and then I crashed and burned
 I put the pieces back together as the seasons turned
 If I could change the past, go back erase what I had done
 Redo most everything, youth is wasted on the young
 Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk
 Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk
 You can't take back everything you've done
 Youth is wasted on the young
 Youth is wasted on the young
 Wasted on the young
 Youth is wasted on the young
 Wasted on the young
 Yeah, you gotta crawl before you walk
 Sometimes you gotta scream before you talk
 You can't take back everything you've done
 Youth is wasted on the young
 Youth is wasted on the young
