Young As You

You're a young bravado 
A bandit playing pirate games 
Wear a coat of rebel anger call 
It by another name 
Hey you - so many years to go 
Too young to be so serious 
Hang on to your spirit and 
Become adventurous 

At times you might be on your own 
Climbing new frontiers 
And if you're frightened of the dark, you're not alone 
Try to persevere, (when you're as:) 

Young as you 
You are strong and innocent 
Young as you 
You long to be different 
Young as you 

You're a weekend warrior 
Sweatin' too hard to make it last 
Ya fight to be like all the heroes 
But you're comin' down way too fast 
Hey you - lay down your sticks and stones 
Cause you're only hurting yourself 
Forget about your ego 
Look inside someone else 

At times you might be on your own 
Climbing new frontiers 
And if you're frightened of the dark, you're not alone 
Try to persevere, (when you're as:) 

Young as you 
You are strong and innocent 
Young as you 
You long to be different 
Young as you 
Young but never wise enough 
Young as you 
You're not too young to rise above
