The Young And The Hopeless

Good Charlotte · Greatest Hits [2010]

Hard days made me hard nights shaped me

I don't know they somehow saved me

And I know I'm making something

Out of this life they call nothing

I take what I want, take what I need

You say its wrong but its right for me

I won't look down won't say I'm sorry

I know that only god can judge me



And if I make it through today

Will tomorrow be the same

Am I just running in place

And if I stumble and I fall

Should I get up and carry on

Will it all just be the same?



Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless

I'm lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say

I'm troublesome I've fallen

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care



No one in this industry

Understands the life I lead

When I sing about my past

It's not a gimmick not an act

These critics and these trust fund kids

Try to tell me what punk is

But when I see them on the street

They got nothin to say



And if I make it through today

Will tomorrow be the same

Am I just running in place

And if I stumble and I fall

Should I get up and carry on

Will it all just be the same?



Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless

I'm lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say

I'm troublesome I've fallen

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care, I don't care, now, I don't care



Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless

Im lost and I know this

I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say

I'm troublesome I've fallen

I'm angry at my father

It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care
