Young Men Songtext
von Moncrieff

We never learned how to slow down
Like all the boys in my hometown
We grew up on a come down
And we drank cheap cider at high tide
But he moved on to the white line
Using a bowl of his lifelines

Picking fights, broken bones, never show
He won′t let it out now
'Cause the hurts are too deep, it′s too big
It's too heavy now

We have and had a fake smile and cheap thrills
We're terrified to talk about ourselves
′Cause we don′t want to be the one percent
We're not build to last, we′re just young men
Don't tell me he had too much to lose
Don′t tell me he was taken way too soon
'Cause we don′t want to be the one percent
We're not build to last, we're just young men, yeah

Yeah, we′re just young men


He lived Friday nights for his brothers
But he threw fists with his father
Guess he conquered his fear of the water

Picking fights, broken bones, never show
He won′t let it out now
'Cause some cuts are too deep, are too big
Are too heavy now

We have and had a fake smile and cheap thrills
We′re terrified to talk about ourselves
'Cause we don′t want to be the one percent
We're not build to last, we′re just young men
Don't tell me he had too much to lose
Don't tell me he was taken way too soon
′Cause we don′t want to be the one percent
We're not build to last, we′re just young men, yeah

Oh, we're just young men
Oh
We′re just young men
Oh
Yeah, we're just young men
Oh


Oh, oh
Oh, oh
