We are, We are the young! Don't take this away from me We are, We are the young! We are, We are the young! This feeling means everything Tell me that I don't know nothing Tell me that I'll never learn This is our generation Don't take this away from me Tell me that I don't know nothing Tell me that I'll never learn This is our generation This feeling means everything We are, We are the young!
