lyrics

I’m slaying dragons left and right
the world is burning but I am alright
Our freedom handed on a silver platter
no scratch on me but something seems the matter

Oh let go and then this moment it’s all there is all there is

Oh what a time a to be alive
we all dream big and breath ambition 9 to 5
So what do you do every day?
Meanwhile the bigger picture fades away

We are the promise that they gave us
The spoon-fed freedoms got us numb
A million chances to be happy
Like youth is wasted on the young
Like youth is wasted on the young
Like youth is wasted on the young

That's why we constantly look back
All that's ahead can only suffer from a lack
of a commitment to success
Collectively nostalgic we suppress

Oh let go and then this moment it’s all there is all there is

We are the promise that they gave us
The spoon-fed freedom got us numb
A million chances to be happy
Like youth is wasted on the young

We are the promise that they gave us
The spoon-fed freedom got us numb
A million chances to be happy
Like youth is wasted on the young

We are the promise that they gave us
Like youth is wasted on the young
The spoon-fed freedom got us numb
Like youth is wasted on the young
A million chances to be happy
Like youth is wasted on the young
Like youth is wasted on the young
