When We Were Young - One Less Reason

You know I’m not heartless, I’m just using my heart less

It’s been that way since the last time I saw you

Your style, your soul, your smile and, endless goodbyes

And I got days where I feel so much stronger

And there’s nights that seem to take so long

Like I was given a first class seat to the long way around

When we were young, you meant so much to me

I never thought there was anything that could tear you away

Oh, when we were young, yeah, I never would believe

That you would end up hating everything, that I’d become

When we were young

Never let 'em know what the smile on your face means

Have friends but stand on your own two feet

Speak up, be bold, baby, say what you mean

You’ll learn a lot when listening closely

Just know I think about you, know I dream about you

Wherever you may be, you’re never too far from me

Your feet on holy ground, but, you’re holding out now, holding out now

When we were young, you meant so much to me

I never thought there was anything that could tear you away

Oh, when we were young, yeah, I never would believe

That you would end up hating everything, that I’d become

When we were young

When we were long down

When it was time to try to save your life

But ya never come around

When we were done

'Cause we never sold out

I can see it in your eyes, you know I’m right

But you’re holding out now, oh yeah, oh

You’re holding out now, you’re

When we were young, you meant so much to me

I never thought there was anything that could tear you away

Oh, when we were young, yeah, I never would believe

That you would end up hating everything, that I’d become

When we were young

Never let 'em know what the smile on your face means

but staying on your own two feet

Speak up, be bold, baby, say what you mean, you gotta say what you mean

Just know I think about you, know I dream about you

Wherever you may be, you’re never too far from me

You’ll be on holy, but, you’re holding out now
