[Verse 1]
I always looked up to the ones who walked away
Choosing themselves over preset ways
Of looking at a future that had no room
For the questions they lived for
Always knew I never could have walked away myself
My self worth was beyond any help
I didn't care to test it against the rejection I'd seen before
[Pre-Chorus]
But those I loved so much
They underwent this change
They're working forty hours
They got caught in the game
[Chorus]
Like junkies running dry
The vulnerability
Like junkies running dry
They're always there on time
Like junkies running dry
They can't be satisfied
Like junkies running dry
[Verse 2]
This wonderful generosity
A third of our lives to do what we please
Doesn't look that great to me
It doesn't even really look fair
They call it youthful idealism
And even I would have to agree with them
Some of us grow up, and it's still there
I always looked up to the ones who walked away
Choosing themselves over preset ways
Of looking at a future that had no room
For the questions they lived for
Always knew I never could have walked away myself
My self worth was beyond any help
I didn't care to test it against the rejection I'd seen before
[Pre-Chorus]
But those I loved so much
They underwent this change
They're working forty hours
They got caught in the game
[Chorus]
Like junkies running dry
The vulnerability
Like junkies running dry
They're always there on time
Like junkies running dry
They can't be satisfied
Like junkies running dry
[Verse 2]
This wonderful generosity
A third of our lives to do what we please
Doesn't look that great to me
It doesn't even really look fair
They call it youthful idealism
And even I would have to agree with them
Some of us grow up, and it's still there
