Strata - Stay Young lyrics

Nothing to lose is a path you can choose And it feels just right at the time Then one day, you awake with a fear you can't shake You're an actor forgetting your lines You were a star when you started So bright-eyed and ready But now you just can't seem to shine Nothing to lose is a path that you choose And it feels just right at the time But can you still remember your very first kiss Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids? Stay young, stay young There are constants like gravity, heartbreak, and shame You can never outrun them; they're a part of your name Like lessons you learn from a past you can't change Stay young, stay young For a lifetime of paying dues and ruthless reviews Yeah, it's hard not to end up a cynic When everyone's too scared to walk in your shoes But can work up the nerve to be critics Oh, can you still remember your very first kiss Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids? Stay young, stay young No, don't lose your heart Don't lose your soul... Don't give up control.... It's the business end of a loaded gun Facing tomorrows of black, useless lungs With nothing but lies on the tips of our tongues Stay young, stay young! Oh, can you still remember your very first kiss Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids? Trying to keep up our innocence in this f**ed-up world Stay young, stay young, stay young.... Nothing to lose is a path that you choose And it feels just right at the time Then one day, you awake with a fear you can't shake You're an actor forgetting your lines....
