Reckless Lyrics

Verse 1

The time has come
We're breaking in
The real world waits
To shed our skin
And our teenage crimes
We'll leave behind
Mistakes we've made
We won't go-
Back for tomorrow when we've got today
We're packing up our sorrow, tomorrow can wait
Say hurray, hurray! For the past we cling to
Today, today! We've got more to sing to
I'm the kid your parents told you not to become
But life's too short to live it in fear of

Chorus

If it's for us, who can be against us?
We are the hope and the future
The promised ones with everything to prove
And with this plan written in our hands
We are the hope and the future
The promised ones with nothing else to lose

Verse 2

This is as good as it gets, your time is of the essence
Day by day, but you're not getting younger
You're on both sides of your fate But dear, we'll find an escape
Living fast, dying younger- you're not
Not getting younger but it's okay
So hold back your tears darling
All that can wait

Chorus

Bridge
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, and you've got nothing to
lose)
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, and you've got nothing to
lose)
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, you've got your whole life
to-)

Young and we're reckless
Bored and we're selfish
Sick and tired of
Young and we're reckless
Bored and we're selfish
Sick and tired of

Chorus
