Only 'Cause You're Young Songtext
von Georgie James

What you want is to not want
And keep yourself on the ground
A book of rules to adhere to
Something that′ll keep you around

Well, you can make it silent
You can make it violent
Only 'cause you′re young, you know
Yeah, you can live with silence
You can live with violence
Only 'cause you're young, you know

Don′t you know that you′re profound?
Make sure that you write things down
Don't destroy the footage
Of yourself creating the town
Let′s take it down to the basement
The cool air is a crown
Isn't this the world that we mastered
Without even making a sound?


Well, you can make it silent
You can make it violent
Only ′cause you're young, you know
Yeah, you can live with violence
You can live with silence
Only ′cause you're young, you know

Just be sure not to look down
Drinking iced tea on the roof
Isn't this the way that we break down?
Isn′t this the way to the truth?

Well, you can make it violent
You can make it silent
Only ′cause you're young, you know
Yeah, you can live with violence
You can live with silence
Only ′cause you're young, you know

Well, you can make it silent
You can make it violent
Only ′cause you're young, you know
Yeah, you can live with silence
You can live with violence
Only ′cause you're young, you know

You are forgiven for earning a living and closing the book on the past
But your nostalgia for former endeavors will unforgivably last
