about

Single version of Folly of Youth

lyrics

Foolish kid, your silence speaks volumes of innocence
(It doesn't have to be so bad, whining won't get you there half as fast)
Foolish kid, your imagination does not exist
(It doesn't have to be so bad, whining won't get you there half as fast)

Open wide, let these demons inside
You couldn't scare them away if you tried
Override, put your trust in white lies
Let them go pull the wool over your own eyes

Foolish kid, only the weak become apologists
(It doesn't have to be so bad, whining won't get you there half as fast)
Foolish kid, only the young think that they can resist
(It doesn't have to be so bad, crying won't get you there half as fast)

Open wide, let these demons inside
You couldn't scare them away if you tried
Override, put your trust in white lies
Let them go pull the wool over your eyes

It's not that this world is unfair
You just need to learn not to care
You won't survive unless you realize life is just a compromise

Dream on
(You're having nightmares)
Float on
(Your thoughts are heavy)
Dance on
(Your feet are cramping)
Move on
(You need some rest)

(Dream on)
You're having nightmares
(Float on)
Your thoughts are heavy
(Dance on)
Your feet are cramping
(Move on)
And fool yourself
