Poor Young Soul
You redefine yourself
According to what's popular
You become someone else
In your effort to be loved
Some lines you never would have crossed
Had you known better what you stood for
But now a part of you's been lost
Handed out, given up
The eyes are fixed upon you, all your peers are pressing in
Your friends have turned against you and you don't know how to win
You're at a loss 'cause you don't drink and you can't dance
You poor young soul, you thought you never stood a chance
No pressure, just do it, ahhh
But once it's gone, it's gone
You wish you could rewind
Go back and start the evening over
So that you don't get left behind
As your companions forge ahead
'Cause as they raced into the night
Like it's the same as any other
You chose to try to do what's right
And so you headed home instead
You were trapped inside the bottle that they forced into your hands
And faced with the decision to give in to their demands
You took a sip and swallowed, paralyzed by circumstance
You poor young soul, maybe someday you'll learn to dance
No pressure (Don't do it) just do it, ahhh
(You're losing your innocence) But once it's gone, it's gone
According to what's popular
You become someone else
In your effort to be loved
Some lines you never would have crossed
Had you known better what you stood for
But now a part of you's been lost
Handed out, given up
The eyes are fixed upon you, all your peers are pressing in
Your friends have turned against you and you don't know how to win
You're at a loss 'cause you don't drink and you can't dance
You poor young soul, you thought you never stood a chance
No pressure, just do it, ahhh
But once it's gone, it's gone
You wish you could rewind
Go back and start the evening over
So that you don't get left behind
As your companions forge ahead
'Cause as they raced into the night
Like it's the same as any other
You chose to try to do what's right
And so you headed home instead
You were trapped inside the bottle that they forced into your hands
And faced with the decision to give in to their demands
You took a sip and swallowed, paralyzed by circumstance
You poor young soul, maybe someday you'll learn to dance
No pressure (Don't do it) just do it, ahhh
(You're losing your innocence) But once it's gone, it's gone
