Don't patronize me because of your youth   Your gonna be me cause I once was you   Torn apart, though never to be joined,   When you find yourself alone,   Your willingness of your nothingness   Your time is sold      Chorus   When you were younger searching all around   Looking for the answer in this town with me,   Never willing to see,   When you were younger looking all around,   Looking for an answer in this town with you,   You.      Now lookin back you seemed so young,   always listening to anyone but me   but your willingness made you ignorant,   and the distance left us on the run   so you screen to me, with the price of equality   when you find yourself confused   Life is too short, when your youth is what you loose.      Chorus   When you were younger searching all around   lookin for the answer in this town with me   never willing to see   When you were younger lookin all around   I'm not your clown.
