Your story's starting out just right,
Your mind is glass these early nights.
Your troubles still are far away
there's nothing here yet to dismay.
There's nothing here to be afraid of.

You're still so young.
You've still got so long.
We're all in envy.
How'd we get so empty?
How'd we get so empty?

Age is a concept you know not,
it's still beyond your shifting thoughts.
And every time you laugh or cry,
you throw your heart into the sky,
you throw your love into the sky.

You're still so young.
You've still got so long.
We're all in envy.
How'd we get so empty?
How'd we get so empty?

It's time we all learned how to die
since we will leave this all behind
'cause what you do affects the ride,
not the destination.

But you're still so young.
You've still got so long.
We're all in envy.
How'd we get so empty?
How'd we get so empty?
How'd we get so . . .
