I was a god once just like you
The coming of age has come 
And everything is colored blue
Wise men have said:
Youth is wasted on the young
We felt like royalty prancing around
But kingdoms' come
And now it's paying bills, Words that Kill, 
Oh how I wish I was a god still

A wide world with you in the center
Big brown eyes takin' it all in
An angel or a demon on your shoulders
And the angel always wins

You are that girl that jumps without looking
That little spirit with rockstar's dreams
Nothing can scar you as long as tears are 
treated with mom's kiss and ice cream

World keeps turning
You keep learning
The world keeps turning
It's true

I was a god once just like you
The coming of age has come 
And everything is colored blue
Wise men have said:
Youth is wasted on the young
We felt like royalty prancing around 
But kingdoms' come
And now it's paying bills, Words that Kill, 
Oh how I wish I was a god still


Driving through the night, friends in the back seat 
Living life in the highest gear
Spending money you don't have on 
No-name bands and cheap cigarettes

Lost boys, boys lost, pinky promises
Growing up, but never growing old
Achilles heel it never stopped him
No lips untouched, no secrets untold 

World keeps turning
You keep learning
The world keeps turning
It's true

I was a god once just like you
The coming of age has come 
And everything is colored blue
Wise men have said: Youth is wasted on the young
We felt like royalty prancing around but kingdoms' come
And now it's paying bills, Words that Kill, 
Oh how I wish I was a god still
Oh I wish I was a god still
