My Youth Is Fading Away

There is a city that I’m calling home

You’ve heard I hate it, that’s what I pretend

I’ve never been so confident with my friends

Talking about their exes while stoned

This little green square where we used to rest

Watching sunsets we were fascinated

Now there are tar and buildings, nothing left

Of the fields and trees, my youth is fading away

I wasn’t meant to fall in love

I’ve never let the fates decide

My youth is fading away

I wasn’t meant to know what’s love but

I’ve never let my hopes die

My youth is fading away

With my first love, talking on the phone

Same heartbeat in different time zones

She was sad as fuck, crying in her room

I was riding at night, listening to Flume

Don’t wanna break up

Wanna break up

It’s been 4 years but it’s still new

Between us, there is no more taboo

I wasn’t meant to fall in love

I’ve never let the fates decide

My youth is fading away

I wasn’t meant to know what’s love but

I’ve never let my hopes die

My youth is fading away

I wasn’t meant to fall in love

I’ve never let the fates decide

My youth is fading
