Youth Without Youth - Metric

Hangman, we played Rubber Soul with a razor blade

Behind the church, hiding place, it was a long joke 'til the punch line came

Can you read my mind?

Read my mind

Follow along to the end of the song

Hangman, we played Double Dutch with a hand grenade

Behind the church hiding place, apathetic to the devil’s face

Wear the sheriff’s badge, put your toys away

They let us go saying, «Let us pray!»

Youth without youth

Youth without youth

Youth without youth

Youth without youth

Hangman, we played hide and seek on the fire escape

Through the smoke we saw the flame, it was a long wait til the firetruck came

On the count of three, jump with me On the count of three, 1−2, 1−2-3, go Youth without youth

Youth without youth, go, go, go Youth without youth

Youth without youth, go, go, go, go Hangman, we played blind man’s bluff with the 9th Brigade

Throw the brick through the windowpane,

Double dutch til they stop the game, till the cops show up hand cuff stunned let us go but we lost one

Hangman we played blind man’s bluff til they stopped the game

Youth without youth, born without time

Youth without youth, can you read my mind?

Youth without youth

Youth without youth, my, my, my mind

Youth without youth

Youth without youth, my, my, my mind
