Kids

(앨범: The Present Is A Foreign Land - 2022)

Coming to terms with things on a comedown
On a train across the city, that I no longer love
Taking me straight to the edge of our nowhere town
Oh, what a pity to see the lives we let go of

Thinking back on the summer
When that even meant anything
When I was a young man
Waiting for my life to begin
We were throwing stones at the sky
Aiming for the moon
Hitting the windows on the lighthouse
We gave up too soon

With the sand at my feet
The people around were the air that I breathed
We could stay young forever
Forever

Set fire to a cruel world
And the hearts of the cool girls
Sometimes I wonder where you've been
'Cause I heard you got sober, moved away
Then someone died and you were never the same again
Guess your time came and went

With the sand at my feet
The people around were the air that I breathed
We could stay young forever
Forever

Was it all in my mind?
'Cause everyone else grew older in time
I'll be alone forever
Forever

(Forever
Forever)

With the sand at my feet
The people around were the air that I breathed
We could stay young forever
Forever

With the sand at my feet (We were just kids)
The people around were the air that I breathed (We know nothing)
We could stay young forever (We were just kids)
Together

Was it all in my mind? (We were just kids)
'Cause everyone else grew older in time (We know nothing)
I'll be alone forever (We were just kids)
Together (We were just kids)

Who knew any better than this? (We were just kids)
All the hours spent wasted (We know nothing)
We were just kids (We were just kids)
We were just kids (We were just kids)

Who knew any better than this? (We were just kids)
All the hours spent wasted (We know nothing)
We were just kids (We were just kids)
We were just kids (We were just kids)

And you can, leave home, never look back
Change your names, cover your tracks
And you might get lost from time to time
'Cause you're still just a kid trying to survive
