• passionately fighting for what we believe in/ quietly giving in when they don't see it/ let's not waste our breath on silence/ let's not miss out on our chance/ so keep the shouting at a whisper/ now the thoughts are getting crisper/ do you remember now/ (do you remember now?)/

    why must this be complicated?/ strip all the mistakes away/ there are always second chances/ being young means all these things/ i won't let you hold me back now/ i refuse to let this die/ you're chance may have passed you up now/ but it doesn't mean the same for us/

    if you find yourself in question/ don't listen to their advice/ they don't know what it feels like/ to keep all the screams inside/ how dare they understand/ how can they take a stand?/ so don't take the time to try/ all they will do is deny/

    why must this be complicated?/ strip all the mistakes away/ there are always second chances/ being young means all these things/ i won't let you hold me back now/ i refuse to let this die/ you're chance may have passed you up now/ but it doesn't mean the same for us/

    (it doesn't mean the same for us)/ don't let them twist you up/ the past is all messed up/ so turn away when they try/ keep them from reaching inside/ don't let them see the truth/ (it's better if it's locked away)/ let's keep them locked away/

    why must this be complicated?/ strip all the mistakes away/ there are always second chances/ being young means all these things/ i won't let you hold me back now/ i refuse to let this die/ you're chance may have passed you up now/ but it doesn't mean the same for us/

    (it's never been the same for us)
