Ruin Your Youth

When it's hard to decide which face to wear this week
Contentment's like a fire
And your smile, smoke it leaks just like desire
It smoulders under the words that you hear
When you're looking for help I'm the voice in your ear
When you sing to yourself that says

Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah

You'll swallow the pride and you'll taste the sweet relief
You're feeling so resigned, ungrateful in defeat
Just like a knife, it cuts you deep
We're the stab in your back
We're the tongue in your cheek
We're the plastic that rides on the waves of the sea

Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah

It was there for the taking, it was there for the taking

You'll accept the decline, the erosion slowly creeps
Embracing all the signs that your beauty was skin deep
Until you realise that there's no forgiveness
For germs in the host, you're the least not the most
Like the words that are lost as they choke in your throat

Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
Just let us
Just let us
Just let us
Ruin your youth yeah
