Blame It On The Youth Lyrics by Mayday Parade
Blame it on the youth
That’s all they’ll ever do
So quick to point the finger back at you
They’ll never understand
This toxic teenage wasteland
The road they walk, the lonesome avenue
Oh, you might just get it right
And never have to question why
Every break will build until it’s broken through
Don’t blame it on the youth
And cover up everything that they do
They’re too young to believe they can do any good
But let’s not be mistaken
Their hearts won’t be breaking
‘Cause they’re better than you
Staring at the view
That long, eight-legged truth
That crawls away and bites right back at you
Sending up the flare
Screaming, “We don’t even care”
So hold onto each other while you can
Oh, you might just get it right
A song that doesn’t make you cry
And I swear it’s hanging there in front of you
(Don’t blink or you’re gonna miss it)
Don’t blame it on the youth
And cover up everything that they do
They’re too young to believe they can do any good
But let’s not be mistaken
Their hearts won’t be breaking
‘Cause they’re better than you
(They’re better than you)
Don’t blame it on the youth
And cover up everything that they do
They’re too young to believe they can do any good
But let’s not be mistaken
Their hearts won’t be breaking
‘Cause they’re better than you
Don’t blame it on the youth
And cover up everything that they do
They’re too young to believe they can do any good
But let’s not be mistaken (Let’s not be mistaken)
Their hearts won’t be breaking
‘Cause they’re better than you
Yeah
‘Cause they’re better than you
