Stay Young Lyrics by Strata

Strata Presents the End of the World

2007

[Verse 1]
"Nothing to lose" is a path you can choose
And it feels just right at the time
Then one day you awake with a fear you can't shake
You're an actor forgetting your lines
You were a star when you started, so bright-eyed and ready
But now you just can't seem to shine
"Nothing to lose" is a path that you choose
And it feels just right at the time
[Chorus]
But can you still remember your very first kiss
Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids?
Stay young
Stay young
[Verse 2]
There are constants like gravity, heartbreak, and shame
You can never outrun them, they're part of your name
Like lessons you learn from a past you can't change
Stay young, stay young
For a lifetime of paying dues and ruthless reviews
Yeah, it's hard not to end up a cynic
When everyone's too scared to walk in your shoes
But can work up the nerve to be critics
[Chorus]
Oh, can you still remember your very first kiss
Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids?
Stay young
Stay young
[Post-Chorus]
No, don't lose your heart
Don't lose your soul
Don't give up control
[Bridge]
It's the business end of a loaded gun
Facing tomorrows of black, useless lungs
With nothing but lies left on tips of our tongues
Stay young, stay young
[Chorus]
Oh, can you still remember your very first kiss
Or the future you hoped for when we were still kids
Trying to keep up our innocence in this fucked-up world?
Stay young
Stay young
Stay young
Stay young, stay young
[Outro]
"Nothing to lose" is a path that you choose
And it feels just right at the time
Then one day you awake with the fear you can't shake
You're an actor forgetting your lines
