What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Life is timeless, days are long when you're young
2
You used to fall in love with everyone
3
Any guitar and any bass drum
4
Life is a drink and you get drunk when you're young
5
Life is new and there's things to be done
6
You can't wait to be grown up
7
Acceptance into the capital world
8
You pull on some weed, then you pull on someone when you're young
9
But you find out life isn't like that
10
It's so hard to comprehend
11
Why you set up your dreams to have them smashed in the end
12
But you don't mind you've got time on your side
13
And they're never gonna make you stand in line
14
You're just waiting for the right time
15
You're fearless and brave, you can't be stopped when you're young
16
You swear you're never ever gonna work for someone
17
No corporations for the new age sons
18
Tears of rage roll down your face
19
But still you say "it's fun"
20
And you find out life isn't like that
21
It's so hard to understand
22
Why the world is your oyster but your future's a clam
23
It's got you in its grip before your born
24
It's done with the use of a dice and a board
25
They let you think you're king but you're really a pawn
26
You're fearless and brave, you can't be stopped when you're young
27
You used to fall in love with everyone
28
Any guitar and any bass drum
