Wasted Youth - A Loss For Words

There’s an image

Running through my head at night

Imposing on every thought and keeping me from sleep

It’s an image

Of myself at seventeen

Screaming «your sincerity

Masked everything we once believed»

Can I retrace my steps back to that place?

I knew the truth

Well, I knew the truth, yeah

I won’t replace my heart for warmer days

I know the truth

And you know it too

While winter takes its toll

In hotels and hospitals

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe

While useless wars are waged

And loyalty’s misplaced

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe

Locked between the vast vacant past and hollow future

This is the present tense

For failed accomplishments

It’s a generation

(It's a generation)

How did we get here?

How did we ever get so lost?

Can I retrace my steps back to that place?

I knew the truth

Well, I knew the truth, yeah

I won’t replace my heart for warmer days

I know the truth

And you know it too

While winter takes its toll

In hotels and hospitals

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe

While useless wars are waged

And loyalty’s misplaced

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe in

Go

Run for your life

Cause in the end

Gonna catch up someday

Get you someday

While winter takes its toll

In hotels and hospitals

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe

While useless wars are waged

And loyalty’s misplaced

I’m still waiting here

For something to believe in

I’m not waiting anymore
