[Verse 1]

It's tempting

To shatter all that I have ever known

Sliver of realization cast into the cold

Tiny shards and broken parts

Of things I swore I'd tear my heart out for

I waited to dig up something that I loved

But all my dreams have turned to dust

Their silver linings start to rust

And in their frame, things I'd saved

Crumpled notes with their words hushed

Are intertwined with underbrush

That I tore down, with the blade my mother gave to me

We lost all of our sanctity, nothing so sweet as release

The rеlease

Nothing so sweet

[Chorus]

I tried to find

Thе youth that's left of me

But there's nothing

I tried to find

The youth that's left of me

But there's nothing

[Verse 2]

I traded wooden swords for burning gasoline

In the backseat, the words we spoke meant much less to me

I burnt out when it burned down

And we tried to keep it clean

And all for what?

So we could continue pretending?

The blade has lost its edge

And I lost my inside

A million different recollections

Swirling in my mind

[Chrous]

I tried to find

The youth that's left of me

But there's nothing

I tried to find

The youth that's left of me

But there's nothing

There is nothing
