Hallelujah!

Youth is turbulent
Insolent
But remember
You wise folks
That at your age
You were like us
Just like us, eager to live
And to follow
The path of your joys
So why throw stones
Let it be
It will all calm down

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Our twenties
Only last for a while
Let them burn
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The sky gives
What it gives us
To enjoy

We're at the age where we die
For dreams
Perhaps senseless
The age where we rebuild the world
That we base
On vague ideas
We want to be invulnerable
Unyielding
Always the strongest
Doing everything with frenzy
Our life
Becomes a struggle

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Our twenties
Only last for a while
Let them burn
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The sky gives
What it gives us
To enjoy

The past still reigns
We ignore it
To live in the future
We create idols
And we stick
Their photos on our walls
It's to prove that we exist
That we resist
Established laws
And to express ourselves
We get drunk
On speed and noise

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Our twenties
Only last for a while
Let them burn
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The sky gives
What it gives us
To enjoy

And our passions are the same
When we love
Everything is turned upside down
Our feelings overwhelm us
And we spend
Our time dreaming
Life takes a different turn
We whisper
Simple and sweet words
Because we melt, we are romantic
It explains
Why we're a little crazy

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Our twenties
Only last for a while
Let them burn
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The sky gives
What it gives us
To enjoy
