Stay Young Lyrics - The Silver Gymnasium - Okkervil River

Young, stay young 

Stay strong, don't get on with it 

Gone, way gone with it 

It's all done with it 

You're all done 

All my friends are running to live 

On corners 

Hurters and the haters and the faders 

And the mourners 

The world goes to its work and it heads not gentle 

And what it breaks you down into 

All my friends are looking in life 

And it's a lone, lone, lone, lonely child 

I said that when you met I was just tired 

I said it to know, I said it in silence

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Young, stay young 

And face y'all now, our time to quit 

Strong, stay strong 

Mind blowing that y'all drum sick 

All these hateful people judging and hand bringing 

Lord, why don't you bury me in all they call sinning? 

Open up your heart, show me the place where love is missing 

How long have you been missing love? 

I said all creation posing and diving up between them 

Now you have to live it up because my head is spinning 

I try, try hard 

To talk with you 

And talk your god 

Of love, of trust 

Just me and your love 

Photos 

And I call to all my friends 

All the cracked could set a thriller 

All the hand inside a tiller 

And a hundred job a biller 

Settled by the stone 

I was rejected by the builder 

There was drinking out the thought 

They carried from the bloody building 

Never let it be said that it wasn't really 

The shit I know you're missing, girl 

Then I'll pass the edges of the earth and make it wider 

I see you're crying 

Don't you know it's killing me? 

I climb, climb up, way up 

To see the sun 

One, one job 

One life, one love 

Is all we got 

Young, stay young 

Get tough 

Get hard with this 

Young, stay young 

Heart racing, sky raining 

Young, I said let it come 

Let it come
