Frightened Rabbit – Skip The Youth lyrics
I've been digging that hole tonight
On my knees beneath the moon
All I need is a place to lie
Guess a grave will have to do
Won't you give me two minutes please?
Just let me cover my eyes
All the hammer and scrape has been chipping away
At the luster of life
So I (move, move)
I would but I'm so tired
(move, move) if I can't shake myself
I can't dance with you
Though my body is far from old
I'm bound to useless youth
And I can't fake a fist to throw
Through the crust of the Earth
If you find me don't wake me
I can't be shaken awake
If you don't stare at the dark
If you never feel bleak
Life starts to lose it's taste
So I (move, move)
I would but I'm so tired
(move, move) if I can't shake myself
I can't dance with you
(I hear the drums)
The worn-out beat of a tired heart
(You are young)
If this is the prime of life I wish I could skip
The blasted youth
Skip the youth, it's aging me too fast
Skip the youth, it's aging me too much
Skip the youth, it's aging me too fast
Skip the youth, it's aging me too much
On my knees beneath the moon
All I need is a place to lie
Guess a grave will have to do
Won't you give me two minutes please?
Just let me cover my eyes
All the hammer and scrape has been chipping away
At the luster of life
So I (move, move)
I would but I'm so tired
(move, move) if I can't shake myself
I can't dance with you
Though my body is far from old
I'm bound to useless youth
And I can't fake a fist to throw
Through the crust of the Earth
If you find me don't wake me
I can't be shaken awake
If you don't stare at the dark
If you never feel bleak
Life starts to lose it's taste
So I (move, move)
I would but I'm so tired
(move, move) if I can't shake myself
I can't dance with you
(I hear the drums)
The worn-out beat of a tired heart
(You are young)
If this is the prime of life I wish I could skip
The blasted youth
Skip the youth, it's aging me too fast
Skip the youth, it's aging me too much
Skip the youth, it's aging me too fast
Skip the youth, it's aging me too much
