Sittin' on the roof to get closer to tomorrow
Didn't know enough to be scared
All you'd have to talk about is where you're gonna go
And what it's gonna be like out there
Out there
You carrying around half of what God gave you
And half of what they told you you should be
Trying to make sense of why anyone stays around here
When you're just counting days until you leave
Lighting cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singing Never Get Old
Throwing bottles at a high school chainlink fence
Telling yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again
You hated broken hearts but you loved the songs about 'em
'Cause someone finally felt the way you did
There's dreams that are in the dirt roads
Under bleachers in the shadows
But tonight, I swear to God I won't forget
Lighting cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singing Never Get Old
Throwing bottles at a high school chainlink fence
Telling yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again
Before the world set in and we punched that clock
Before we knocked those hell-bent edges off
Lighting cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singing Never Get Old
Throwing bottles at a high school chainlink fence
Telling yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again
To be young and angry again
