In Our Youth

Only the devil
May have cared
As we dulled
The edge of all our fears

Young and feral
Chasing the unknown
As present peril
Watched from the shadows

Everything has its price
And we're buying if it's right
You could see it in our eyes
This was a fool's paradise

We could handle the abuse
The pills and the booze
We had every excuse
Little to lose in our youth

There was nothing
To keep us from falling
We ignored every warning
As we danced on the edge
The abyss kept calling
So the fire kept burning

It wasn't an act
No strings attached
Just an unwritten pact
To break the forgers back
There was no turning back
Just a desperate laugh
As we dug our own graves

Everything has its price
And we're buying if it's right
But you could see it in our eyes
This was a fool's paradise

We had nothing to lose
In the peak of our youth
Nothing to lose
Until we lost you

Everything has its price
And we're buying if it's right
But you could see it in our eyes
This was a fool's paradise

We were chasing a high
Just to feel alive
We'd hunt through the night
Right past the sunrise

You could see it in our eyes
This was a fool's paradise
