The Adored - Savage Youth Lyrics

Time can swallow all these dreams
Dreams that connect the nights to you and me
These days are supposed to be the best of our lives
But we get stopped and checked for knives
My friends all want to be actors
(But too shy to conjure words)
Or hang around art schools
So they spend nights with fools
There's nothing else to do for savage youth
Somehow "savage youth"

Class is full of hypocrites
Still getting sick on saccharin
Nowhere for us to go at night
Then when we gotta wake it's still not bright
Blinds block the sun on our Sundays
'Cause we've been fried since Friday, in a daze
Time rented out to chores
My mother's arms are sore
'Cause you left us waiting on forever
But we're savage youth
Somehow "savage youth"

Can't iron out the irony
When the real criminals still talk down to me
While we steal cigarettes
They're stealing our retirement
While we can't get a date
They keep us down in Section Eight for home
Home is nothing very sweet for me
That's why my ignition depends on a set of car keys
I wrote a ballad just for you
But they still call us savage youth
They're - you're - I'm - we're "savage youth"
