Assassins of youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another part of you dies
The truth is a lie
Assassins of youth
Sugar while I look at you
They are still here going on and on
You're already gone, gone

I was young yesterday
But now everything has changed after today
And I don't know what to do
Oh my youngest self, oh I, I miss you
Yes, I do

Assassins of youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another part of you dies
The truth is a lie
Assassins of youth
Sugar while I look at you
They are still here going on and on
You're already gone, gone

I was young yesterday
But now everything has changed after today
And I don't know what to do
Oh my youngest self, oh I, I miss you
Yes, I do

In case I couldn't see
The drunken one of me
How sad to think you're done
Even your death will die
I can't believe you died
I can't believe their lies
But sugar while I look at you
Assassins of youth
