Youth

Verse 1 The wind is driving clouds across the sky, Somewhere in the distance, a tram is humming. We're running, not knowing what we need., We just feel the edge breathing. School yard, broken asphalt, A laugh that will never die. We didn't know pity then., They only knew: "I" and "We" forever. Chorus Youth is a flash in the dark, That's the cry we're shouting. We fly without feeling cared for, This world seems to be our home. Don't ask where we're running to, Just trust that time is not in a hurry. Youth is what we make up. At this moment, that eternity does not hear. Verse 2 The first kiss on the porch of the school, The first lie, the first guilt. We built castles out of thin air, We thought we were one family. The clock was ticking faster than us, The world was changing, and we were changing too. But the same eye was burning in his eyes., That he knows no fear and is not afraid. Chorus Youth is a flash in the dark, That's the cry we're shouting. We fly without feeling cared for, This world seems to be our home. Don't ask where we're running to, Just trust that time is not in a hurry. Youth is what we make up. At this moment, that eternity does not hear. Bridge Only the photos on the wall will remain., And the songs that we sang blindly. But this pain, this silence, She will be more precious to us than peace.
