Young and Dumb |
| I pursued happiness |
| A tapestry of fluorescent bliss |
| But I’m dying on the vine |
| Don’t recognize the view from here |
| A poor reflection in the rearview mirror |
| Of my own design |
| Every day is moving faster |
| Wanna hide from the disaster |
| But I’m a prisoner of my time |
| I’d rather be young and dumb |
| Surrounded by the possibility |
| Don’t want to be old and numb |
| Wanna tell myself a lie I can believe |
| I wanna be young and dumb |
| I tried living in the ivory tower |
| Held down three jobs at ten an hour |
| Just to get into the door |
| Been a hero and a deadbeat |
| A pencil pusher and a piece of meat |
| Wish I could forget what I know |
| And when my eyes are clear |
| I see good intentions are a cheap veneer |
| For every evil justified |
| I’d rather be young and dumb |
| Surrounded by the possibility |
| Don’t want to be old and numb |
| Wanna tell myself a lie |
| Wanna tell myself |
| I’d rather be young |
| And dumb |
| It’s hard enough |
| To know it’s not enough to know better |
| If these aching bones |
| And these jagged stones go together |
| Well I’d rather be young |
| Ashes to ashes |
| We all end up in a casket |
| Guess I’m fighting for my life |
| I’d rather be young and dumb |
| Surrounded by the possibility |
| Don’t want to be old and numb |
| Wanna tell myself a lie |
| Wanna tell myself |
| I’d rather be young and dumb |
