[Verse 1]
All the chemicals in our hair
All the needles in our face
What exactly are we trying to erase
I've got no map of who I am
As I walk through the ruins
Of a life I was supposed to lead
[Verse 2]
The father in me
Is dying to come home
While the child
Is still trying to break free
I'm so sorry for all those times
I kind of lost my mind
In a bottle on the open sea
[Chorus]
Don't turn around, don't turn around
You're so beautiful in the light
Don't hide the sun, don't hide the sun
We may never be this young again
[Verse 3]
There are rules we live by
Just to break them sometimes
Just to test ourselves to make sure we're alive
What if I stopped the world
And all the birds started singing
For the dreamer who didn't make it through the night
[Chorus]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
When I roll through the flowers of my mind
Don't hide the sun, don't hide the sun
We may never have this chance again
We may never be this free
We may never be this young again
