abstract - reckless youth lyrics

[intro]
shadows settle on the place, that you left
our minds are troubled by the emptiness
destroy the middle, it’s a waste of time
from the perfect start to the finish line
and if you’re still breathing, you’re the lucky ones
’cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs

[verse 1]
yeah, she’s young and she thinks that she knows most
spend daddy’s money on all her drugs
but yo, that’s the right thing to do
’cause all your friends gon’ do it too
no question, they gon’ laugh at you
if you ain’t high off daddy’s loot
so you go to school, lookin’ so d-mn cute
but the man you choose always say, “deuces”
a guy who’s tryin’ to catch your eye
who probably can treat you right
he text you almost every night
but you’re busy workin’ out a fight
with the two shoes in it for your bod
but you worship him like he’s a god
you think that that’s okay because
it looks the same with your dad and mom
she just from a broken home
and she don’t know different to help
’cause if the present isn’t changed
history gon’ repeat itself
he beats her, but she beats herself
thinkin’ it’s her fault he want someone else
he’s trapped her in a web of lies
a stream of tears should be his cries
and i know you all are askin’ why
but we seen it happen a thousand times
when we act as if we f-ckin’ moms
won’t try to be calm when we see the sign
she a victim of popularity
these days, ain’t much of a rarity
she don’t know any different
she’s scared to be out there livin’ free

[chorus]
we are the reckless
we are the wild youth
chasing visions of our futures
one day we’ll reveal the truth
that one will die before he gets there

[verse 2]
months go on and it’s all the same
a little love with a lot of pain
when she text him, gets back, “what’s your name?”
she realizes he don’t feel the same
she just another girl to him
a contact name on a list of friends
just another way to hit and win
ain’t sure what ‘ere to sink and swim
so she decides to go begin a life independent of him
but she’s feelin’ lonely now, so she ain’t sure she’ll ever win
she used to go out every night but now she do the opposite
wonder if it’s worth it just to get back with a man
he was a key to popularity; she’s lost all of her plans
she just wants somebody who will take the time to understand
why her head is in her hands
tears fall from the place she stand
she just wanted some romance
and then they gave up all she can
so one day she decides
she’s gonna text back who was always there
but he ain’t textin’ back
so all she can do now is sit and stare
but she don’t know he’s given up
’cause it took her too long to care
the pain of watchin’ her lose herself
was just too much for him to bear

[chorus]
we are the reckless
we are the wild youth
chasing visions of our futures
one day we’ll reveal the truth
that one will die before he gets there
