Jesse Malin - When You're Young

Wake up with your sad luck story, oh somebody got murdered
Wake up from your paths of glory, oh nobody you'd heard of
Wake up from your bad dreams and lay them on the table
You're the last of a dying breed
And no stranger to the street

When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar

Wake up it's another year and oh, the lock and chain
Wake up and there's nobody near but oh, the pouring rain
Wake up don't waste your life on things that don't get better
When you go through living hell but you wear it oh so well

When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar

It's just another day you can throw away
Gonna fade away, gonna fade away

When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar
When it runs in your blood and you're taking it too far
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar
