Youth

Are these the hardest days of my life? I think they might be
All the things I buried deep are coming for me
I can't help feeling like my youth is lost on me
It feels so safe here in the trenches of my grief

But somewhere down in my spirit there's a flame
And it's burning holes in all the misdirected blame
And I don't quite care if they call it a fantasy
Cause it's mine to keep like these amethyst colored dreams

Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I know you never thought you'd see me in this way
I spend all my time making friends with my pain
If I allow the joy back in, what would that mean?
I guess it's time I redefine my family

Sometimes I get glimpses of my heart in ease
And I start to recall what it feels like to be at peace
And I'm sure I'll always be subject to the schemes
But right now no one can kill my amethyst colored dreams

Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I still remember climbing up magnolia trees
And singing for everyone cause I wasn't afraid
Before I starved myself of love and other things
Cause I believed I owed you every part of me
But I don't owe you anything
