I wonder what the world before you looked like, I guess we'll never know Losing our minds, living on borrowed time But at least we got our phones Tell me not to do as you do, but to do as you say Saying there's no use with the youth these days All these thoughts and prayers feeling so cliche, you got us here You set fire to the house, tucked us in with a kiss goodnight Got the brakes to the car, said get in you're learning to drive Tied our hands behind our backs, called it a fair fight It's fine, we're fine, the kids are alright We'll build a tower with the bricks that you threw Oh, stack them one by one Climb to the top and enjoy the view You'll never see it, you'll be gone Tell me not to do as you do, but to do as you say Saying there's no use with the youth these days All these thoughts and prayers feeling so cliche, you got us here You set fire to the house, tucked us in with a kiss goodnight Got the brakes to the car, said get in you're learning to drive Tied our hands behind our backs, called it a fair fight It's fine, we're fine, the kids are alright You grew up and gave up and * up, said don't * at you You set fire to the house, tucked us in with a kiss goodnight Got the brakes to the car, said get in you're learning to drive Tied our hands behind our backs, called it a fair fight It's fine, we're fine, the kids are alright The kids are alright
