When I was young lyrics
I ve been looking all around
try to figure out what the hell really counts
when everything feels like it s fillin up with doubt
thoughts heading south
and no one can hear me shout
and the voices in mhy head so loud
calm before the storm like a Seattle cloud
the sky so gray try to figure it out
why I m so down in this sunlight drought
yea memories coming back to me
of a simpler time when I was youung and free
playing games with the kids lived next to me
didn t care about time or anything yea
but things Change turned twenty three
had to figure out what the hell was next for me
do I do the safe thing something guaranteed
or do I do what I love till my fingers bleed

it ll all be ok
figure out my own way
but for now here I lay
and remember a day
when I was youung
when I was youung

smoke stacks cuz it s Cold outside
fire burning from the other night
I can smell the coals in my soul
it makes me feel something deep inside
memories of a better life
memories where I felt alive
in these time you can choose to survive
in these times you can choose to thrive
and I wanna make something take something
take control of my life and display something
show the world what I love and go play something
show the world what I love on a stage strumming
and I wanna make y all feel the same
and I wanna take away all the pain
at least for a minute while I play
I wanna make you feel ok

it ll all be ok
figure out my own way
but for now here I lay
and remember a day
when I was youung
when I was youungg
