Wasted Youth by Menny Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2021

[VERSE 1]
Another night, nothing new
Smell of sex and cheap perfume
Bottles hid up in her room
No one knows what she’s been through
Lighting up a cigarette
Air is heavy with regret
Heartache up, up in her chest
Vodka soda to forget

[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh no, oh no it’s gonna happen again
She’s feeling empty in her heart and now she’s calling her friends
And, oh no, don’t go, she’s feeling broken again (and again, and again)
One fake ID and she’s in

[Chorus]
Don’t grow up too fast
No, never take that chance
You gotta make it last, you gotta make it last
It’s too bad baby you’re mad, and I’m crazy
Just maybe try changing, cause damn you’re gonna regret the past
Don’t grow up too fast
No, never take that chance
You gotta make it last, you gotta make it last
It’s too bad baby you’re sad, don’t start blaming
Just maybe try saving yourself before you regret all those
[Bridge]
Tossing, turning, sleepless nights
Sex and drugs and candlelight
Got you thinking he’s the one
But he’s just here until he’s done
Pop those pills to numb the pain
Boys and stupid then they’re great
Are you really having fun
Just learn to love yourself enough

[Verse 2]
Same story, different date
Different party, worth the wait
Perfect hair and tiny waist
Making moves, I calculate
No emotion here to show
Cause men don’t get emotional
With heavy handles on the rocks
We chasing girls and chasing shots

Absent father, broken home
He’s ditching class, she’s home alone
Fills the void with having sex
But never quite feels normal when
She’s left to think about her life
He smokes to get to sleep at night
They think “the one” will make it right
And fill that emptiness inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no, oh no it’s gonna happen again
She’s stealing hearts in every club and loves that she can get in
And oh no, oh no she thinks he’ll clean up his act
But he’s not texting her back

[Chorus]
Don’t grow up too fast
No, never take that chance
You gotta make it last, you gotta make it last
It’s too bad baby you’re mad, and I’m crazy
Just maybe try changing, cause damn you’re gonna regret the past
Don’t grow up too fast
No, never take that chance
You gotta make it last, you gotta make it last
It’s too bad baby you’re sad, don’t start blaming
Just maybe try saving - yourself before you regret the past
