The Young And The Hopeless

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Hard days made me

Hard nights shaped me

I don't know, they somehow saved me

And I know I'm making something

Out of this life they called nothing

I take what I want, take what I need

They say it's wrong, but it's right for me

I won't look down, won't say I'm sorry

I know that only god can judge me

And if I make it through today

Will tomorrow be the same?

Am I just running in place?

And if I stumble and I fall

Should I get up and carry on?

Will it all just be the same?

'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless

I'm lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast, that's what they say

I'm troublesome, I'm falling

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care

And no one in this industry

Understand the life I lead

When I sing about my past

It's not a gimmick, not an act

These critics and these trust fund kids

Try to tell me what punk is

But when I see them on the street they got nothing to say

And if I make it through today

Will tomorrow be the same?

Am I just running in place?

And if I stumble and I fall

Should I get up and carry on?

Will it all just be the same?

'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless

I'm lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast, that's what they say

I'm troublesome, I'm falling

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

Now, I don't care

I'm young and I'm hopeless

I'm lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast, that's what they say

I'm troublesome, I'm falling

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

I don't care
