Lyrics:
Assassins of Youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another little part of you dies
Their truth is a lie

Assassins of Youth
Shoot whoever they can shoot
They are still here going on and on
You’re already gone
I was young

Yesterday
But everything has changed
After today
Now I don't know
What to do
Oh my younger self
Oh I
I miss you
Yes I do

Assassin of Youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another little part of you dies
The truth is a lie

Assassin of Youth
Shoot whoever they can shoot
They are still here going on and on
You’re already gone
Gone

I was young
Yesterday
But everything is changed after today
And I don't know
What to do
Oh my younger self
Oh I
I miss you
Yes I do

I guess I couldn't see
The joke it was on me How sad to think in time
Even your death will die
I can't believe their lies
I can’t believe you’ve died
They shoot whoever they can shoot
Assassins of youth
