Young and Stupid

I was yelling in the my sleep

I was crying, feeling weak

Do we have to feel this way?

It wasn't like this yesterday

Everything is fine when you're young and stupid

Everything's divine when you're young and stupid

There's an easy start to things

There's a thrill that beauty brings

Glued together at the hips

Stuck together at the lips

Nature has the lead when you're young and stupid

Nurture will impede when you're young and stupid

Now we're old with creaking bones

Some with partners, some alone

Some with kids and some with dogs

Getting through the nightly slog

Flashes in the mind, you were young and stupid

Keeps us warm at night, all our young and stupid

Makes us feel delight, we were young and stupid

Makes you feel regret when you're young and stupid

You know, I kept reminding myself that nothing matters

Nothing matters

You know, sometimes you have a fight

With someone or you get frustrated and

You know, something's happening, and then

You catch a little glimpse of the outside, and

I don't know, it's just a bird flying, or

You see a funny shape in the clouds, and you think

"What am I doing?"

You know?

"I'm so small. Nothing, nothing matters, so

Whatever"
