Young and angry again

Sittin' on the roof to get closer to tomorrow
Didn't know enough to be scared
All you'd have to talk about is where you're gonna go
And what it's gonna be like out there
Out there

You carryin' around half of what God gave you
And half of what they told you you should be
Tryin' to make sense of why anyone stays around here
When you're just countin' days until you leave

Lightin' cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singin' Never Get Old
Throwin' bottles at a highschool chainlink fence
Tellin' yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-
I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again

You hated broken hearts but you loved the songs about 'em
'Cause someone finally felt the way you did
There's dreams that are in the dirt roads, under bleachers in the shadows
But tonight, I swear to God I won't forget
Lightin' cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singin' Never Get Old
Throwin' bottles at a highschool chainlink fence
Tellin' yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-
I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again

Before the world set in and we punched that clock
Before we knocked those hell-bent edges off

Lightin' cigarettes just to hold 'em
Up in the air, singin' Never Get Old
Throwin' bottles at a highschool chainlink fence
Tellin' yourself all you'll ever need
Is a heart full of fire and gasoline
I could use a little who-
I-was and that way-back-when
To be young and angry again
To be young and angry again
