[Verse 1]
We got a lot of time to get it right
It feels good to mess it up, maybe don't think about it
Going late night, who needs a fantasy
Buzzing on Hennessy, drives like a Kennedy
And you're my nation, my revolution
Living right now, well you can call it disillusioned

[Pre-Chorus]
Until tomorrow comes
This is how we run

[Chorus]
So take the good stuff, honey
That money just won't buy
Spend it up, up however we like
So take the good stuff, honey
That money just won't buy
Don't try to save us 'cause we're doing it right
We are, we are the wasted youth
We are, we are the wasted youth

[Post-Chorus]
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
[Verse 2]
Look what you did to me
A rebel born free
Running wild through the concrete jungle
Now I can't seem to stay away
Hell, I know that I'm gonna pay
But I do it anyway (anyway, anyway)

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the ultimate high that I'm tripping on
You're the edge of the cliff that I'm hanging on
Until tomorrow comes
This is how we run

[Chorus]
So take the good stuff, honey
That money just won't buy
Spend it up, up however we like
Take the good stuff, honey
That money just won't buy
Don't try to save us 'cause we're doing it right
We are, we are the wasted youth
We are, we are the wasted youth

[Post-Chorus]
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
[Bridge]
I tell myself
If I'm gonna fall
It'll be from high places
Even when it hurts, at least we loved hard
Now, didn't we, baby?

[Chorus]
We are, we are the wasted youth
We are, we are the wasted youth
We are, we are the wasted youth
We are, we are the wasted youth

[Post-Chorus]
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you
Wasted on you, wasted on you

[Outro]
It's my life
If I'm gonna waste it
Gonna waste it on you
It's my life
If I'm gonna waste it
I'll be wasted on you
