I'm just trying to find my way back
Over islands, to the rest of my pack
Father dearest, I have been blind
You and mother have given me all of this time

Some of us will just fly away
Some of us will think differently
Oh! If we die young
Oh! We're not gonna live forever

Sorry my lover, but I couldn't see
All of these questions are not only weighing on me
Father says I should not waste my time
Mother says we all have our own mountains to climb

Some of us will just fly away
Some of us will think differently
Oh! If we die young
Oh! We're not gonna live forever
Oh! If we die young
Oh! We'll run together

Wake up and seize the day
Come closer to me my love
What if two eyes were meant to be blind
Through all of this violence
It's all just a matter of time

If we die young
We're not gonna live forever

Oh! If we die young
Oh! We're not gonna live forever
Oh! If we die young
Oh! We'll run together
