Rowan Drake - Youth

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2001525
Verse 1
East is the way that I shouldn't go
I've been holdin' on to us again
I know, I know it's my own ❲?❳
Plead with the things I can't control
So leave the door open it's worth ❲?❳

I need you like a child
You're somewhere in my bones
I hate you for a while
Then forgive you
I swear I know it's like home
It doesn't really matter how far you go

Chorus
I gave you my youth
But you kept the kid
He's still in your arms
When I picture him
Now I wonder if
He'll ever live
The life for himself
A life you're not in

Verse 2
I can't remembеr all the things I'm supposed to feel
(It's getting old now)
I swеar this life it used to hold a little hold
(Then it burned out)
And maybe I
Maybe I could take it back
But I need you for that
So don't deny it
You hold me still
Like there's no guilt
My eyes they wilt
Looking for a sign
The part of me you keep is still mine

Chorus
I gave you my youth
But you kept the kid
He's still in your arms
When I picture him
Now I wonder if
He'll ever live
The life for himself
A life you're not in

Outro
I gave you my youth
He's still in your arms
Now I wonder if
I'll ever live
The life for myself
A life you're not in

"Rowan Drake's song "Youth" is a heartfelt reflection on the struggles of holding onto a past relationship. The lyrics speak to the internal battle of needing someone like a child, yet also harboring feelings of hatred and forgiveness. The chorus emphasizes the idea of giving away one's youth to someone who still holds onto the innocence of the past. The bridge delves into the confusion and longing for a sense of self, while still being intertwined with memories of the past. The outro brings closure to the song, questioning if the narrator will ever be able to live a life free from the lingering presence of their past relationship. Overall, "Youth" is a poignant ballad that captures the complexities of love and loss."
