I never really got why we're here
|
Just look at all we build in our lives and we all disappear
|
A few of us are born with so much
|
While most of us just chasing down a dream that we just can't touch
|
So why we try so hard in this place?
|
When pain and suffering is a guarantee and happiness is a phase
|
I wonder if one day we're at peace
|
Or will this whole world just become like the middle east?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But when I was younger, when I was younger
|
I had the answers, I've got to say
|
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
|
Turned into questions, in front of me
|
|
I wonder where we go when we die
|
If there is anything past our lost sun and our sky?
|
Cuz airports only take us so high
|
Is it hidden in the stars?
|
What's the answer to your soul lying?
|
I wonder do we get to come back
|
I wonder if I will remember these questions I've asked
|
Or will I just star over again?
|
I hope it's not too hard to find all of my old friends.
|
|
[Chorus x2:]
|
But when we were younger, when we were younger
|
I had the answers, I've got to say
|
But all of my answers, now that we're older
|
Turned into questions, in front of me
|
|
I wonder if we get one true love
|
Or maybe there's a few out there
|
Or maybe not even one
|
I wonder if it's made up by man
|
I wonder if love is what we make with our own two hands
|
I wonder why I write all these songs
|
I wonder if you know what you're saying when you sing along
|
And will you know my name when I'm gone?
|
Or are you just too sick of these love songs?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But when we were younger, when we were younger
|
I had the answers, I've got to say
|
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
|
Turned into questions, in front of me
|
|
But when we were younger, when we were younger
|
I had the answers, I've got to say
|
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
|
Just turned into questions, right in front of me
|
Right in front of me, in front of me
|
Everything changes in front of me
|
