I looked up to everyone who knew who they’d like to be one day

Or really anything to carry the weight of loss on their shoulders

A perfect start is not the only thing that counts

The finish-line won’t be for just the lucky ones

‘cause youth can make you carry the weight of life on your shoulders

If only i was young forever i would pull my act together

I could make this world my own

If only i was young forever i would pull my strength together

So that i could count the stars in nights unknown

I felt like a kid who wasn’t sure how to create myself anew

To carry the weight of loss on my shoulders

I know that i got time to turn it all around

And someday i’ll be sleeping safe and sound

‘cause memory can make you carry the weight of life on your shoulders

If only i was young forever i would pull my act together

I could make this world my own

If only i was young forever i would pull my strength together

So that i could count the stars in nights unknown

And i’m breathing in, i’m breathing out

My hourglass feels empty

It’s been a while, more than a while

Since i was twenty

I’m getting up, not giving in

I live to learn and grow

It’s been a while, but not yet time

To let it go

If only i was young forever i would pull my act together

I could make this world my own

If only i was young forever i would pull my strength together

So that i could count the stars in nights unknown
