We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesWe could rule the world
On a silver platter
From the wrong to the right light
To an open streamWith a crash and burn
We could make it better
Turn it upside down
Just you and meWe are the dream
No other way
To beWe are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesI could change the world
I could make it better
Kick it up and down
Take a chance on meWhen you fake a smile
And you think you're better
Gonna put it down
Rip it at your feetNo bridge to burn
Nowhere to turn
For meWe are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesWe are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesWhat do they know about us?
Are they thinking of somebody else?
Are they wondering what we might be?
Are they thinking of you or of me?We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesWe are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our kneesWe are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belongWe're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees
