Kids
If there's one thing that I've learnt it's that not all bad decisions turn out bad
Well at least not yet
'Cause in sheds like these I've shivered through some of the best times of my life
And I'm not dead yet
There's nothing as beautiful as the scramble to the front row of a few
Enough people to keep your arms warm but still not obstruct your view
Of the road-wearied wanderers with the really stoned drummer throwing sweat and beers
With the city that they're playing in's name on the outside of the tin
And she stared straight into his soul on the broken step
He'd stared straight into everyone's with his hair between his lips
And everything played out before me like the most obvious story of bravado and libido
Some buzz word, some dead hero
I hope I can keep doing this, I'll keep staying off the piss
Well at least before we play 'cause I remember them that way
I'm running from misheard conversations, half-imagined explanations
My own undying frustration and the feeling
That there's something better than this
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And who the fuck do I think I am to stand here and scream just like I've got some kind of plan
And even if I did I wouldn't have a single good thing to say about it
'Cause all that's in my head is recycled rhetoric and smart things that my parents have said
Nothing more and nothing less
I never once made any sense can't sit still long enough to let my hands rest
Speak open sounds at open sores and hope and the ground
And know what people think I am and what I am isn't the same thing
Wake every day and live a lifestyle lined wtih dying
And the overriding feeling there's something better than this
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And I will let nothing age me, no matter how much
I'm told I have changed, changed, changed
And I will let nothing age me, no matter how much
I'm told I have changed, changed, changed
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
Well at least not yet

We're just kids staring at the sun and we don't mean nothing to no one
