Outlaws by Green Day Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Life after youth, faded in twilight
The dawn of a criminal in bloom
First love, first forgiveness, we were delinquents
Freaks of a fading memory
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever
[Verse 2]
Scars, broken hearts, breaking in cars
Running in the light of the moon
Lost souls, bottle rockets, all that we wanted
It's for our life beyond the stars
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever, baby
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
I've got no supervision
Nothing will change my spirit's place to roam
I plead my innocence, I plead my innocence
But that's my best defense when you are young
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever
[Outro]
I found a knife by the railroad track
You took a train, and you can't go back
Forever now, forever now, you'll roam
Life after youth, faded in twilight
The dawn of a criminal in bloom
First love, first forgiveness, we were delinquents
Freaks of a fading memory
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever
[Verse 2]
Scars, broken hearts, breaking in cars
Running in the light of the moon
Lost souls, bottle rockets, all that we wanted
It's for our life beyond the stars
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever, baby
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
I've got no supervision
Nothing will change my spirit's place to roam
I plead my innocence, I plead my innocence
But that's my best defense when you are young
[Chorus]
Outlaws, when we were forever young
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of redemption, baby
Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia
When we were outlaws
We're outlaws of forever
[Outro]
I found a knife by the railroad track
You took a train, and you can't go back
Forever now, forever now, you'll roam
