The Smith Street Band - Stay Young lyrics

It meant a lot
It meant more than you'd ever know
We moved apart and in
Different directions we'll go
And you made choices
And I'd have never thought any less of you
But with all your education
Thought you'd have figured out what
I'm trying to do and

Some things are bigger than hellfire
Some lives are smaller than most
And I can't justify an existence
Spent dancing with a ghost

And we're gonna get ourselves outta here

So don't make me feel small
I try as hard as anyone
And don't make me feel young
It's just semantics and a matter of months

And if everything we fought for
Is now a fucking joke
Well at least I'm not the punch line

So get this scribbled on your chest, "A loss
That's shared is a loss felt less, "
And I know we lost something
Just can't think of when or where
And if I knew, I'd meet you there
And I'd say, "I'm sorry, "
And that I'm wrong
But how would you understand if
You don't sing along?
You've changed and outgrown
That's fine I'll stay young
Because when I die I won't be old
So let's take this one out into the cold
If we only get tonight, let's go out in style
