So far away from knowing where I am going
I am trying hard to find out who I am
They all see that I don't know what I am doing
I say they don't hardly understand
Why can't they remember
What I will never forget
How these dreams come undone
When you're young
Chorus:
You give what you give cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won't take you
they want you to be what they make you
It's already over and done
Everything seems perfect (everything seems perfect)
Everything's OK (everything's OK)
It will all get better now (get better now)
At least that's what they say
But I don't see it coming
Chorus:
You give what you give cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won't take you
And they want you to be what they make you
It's already over and done
When you're young
Days really just seem longer
They say it's better this way
I hope one day I am stronger than I feel
And I hope it feels different than today
Chorus:
You give what you give cause they make you
Trapped inside a place that won't take you
And they want you to be what they make you
It's already over and done
It's already over and done
It's already over and done
When you're young
Why can't they remember
What I'll never forget
How these dreams can come undone
When you're young
