Young One
Don't ask me to tell you why you're scared
I'm not your spirit
Don't task me with teaching you to care
There's no use in it
Complain of the things that you can't grasp
When your arms are folded
Remain in first and become last
You already sold it
You would not believe
If I told you the words
As plain as the day
You don't know what I've seen
You don't know what I've heard
And I know that's okay
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
You fear things that you already know
You sit in silence
Inside you though you won't let it show
I know there's violence
You would not believe
If I told you the words
As plain as the day
You don't know what I've seen
You don't know what I've heard
And I like it that way
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
I know I'm gonna wait for a while before I try to explain
I know I am a fool but a word to the wise is what I maintain
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
I'm not your spirit
Don't task me with teaching you to care
There's no use in it
Complain of the things that you can't grasp
When your arms are folded
Remain in first and become last
You already sold it
You would not believe
If I told you the words
As plain as the day
You don't know what I've seen
You don't know what I've heard
And I know that's okay
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
You fear things that you already know
You sit in silence
Inside you though you won't let it show
I know there's violence
You would not believe
If I told you the words
As plain as the day
You don't know what I've seen
You don't know what I've heard
And I like it that way
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
I know I'm gonna wait for a while before I try to explain
I know I am a fool but a word to the wise is what I maintain
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
Oh, young one, you've trembling hands
But I can't, I can't lie to you
Oh, young one, you'll never understand
But maybe this ghost moves through you
