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 can come undone

When you're young

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

Everything seems perfect

Everything's okay

And it will all get better now

At least that's what they say

But I don't see it coming

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

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 will never forget

How these dreams can come undone

When you're young
