The Young Souls

The young souls won't burn out!

The young souls won't burn out!

So busy saying that we care

Have we forget the meaning?

It's like a sky without the air,

Or lungs without breathing

So twisted from what it should be

Who gives us

Is it you or me?

The things I'd rather not have stuck in my head

Laid by my side, body and bed

The burden of knowing what we could have been

Lost inside, trapped within

I wear my heart on my sleeve

They'll never take that from me

I won't surrender my will to the world

Because it's harder to sleep if I would choose to believe

We can do nothing to keep out the cold

The young souls won't burn out!

The young souls won't burn out!

Respect lost entirely

False promise from society

So busy saying that we really care

Don't hide the proof

Don't cover the scars

Wear the hatred across your heart

They try to fix you

Don't make amends

No giving in

I wear my heart on my sleeve

They'll never take that from me

I won't surrender my will to the world

Because it's harder to sleep if I would choose to believe

We can do nothing to keep out the cold

I'm uncertain what my future holds

But I'm certain I'll embrace the cold

Embrace the cold

Has the whole world given up?

Given up!

The burden of knowing what we could have been

Lost inside, and trapped within the twine

I wear my heart on my sleeve

They'll never take that from me

I won't surrender my will to the world

Because it's harder to sleep if I would choose to believe

We can do nothing to keep out the cold

The young souls won't burn out!
