"YOUNGER AND DUMB"

 

"YOUNGER AND DUMBER"

Eatin' pancakes, smokin' on the way to class, dreams enraptured

You, the magical illusion, bet up on a pedestal, captured

Feelings, fragile as a crystal vase, break it, rubble scattered

Nineteen, blind loyalty, naive faith, so easily shattered

Older you, supposed wise, played my heart, left it rough

Careless with my trust, like smashin' fine china, bluff

Smokin' dreams just like the papers, driftin', 'scape in a puff

We was fly, but now it's turbulence, skies gettin' tough

Young, dumb, and broke, we were college kids, wild and free

You handled my heart, tossed it 'round carelessly

Ideal dreams once had me hooked, like a melody

Now memories, like old tracks, spun endlessly

In love, in like, lives intertwined, skipping school for the thrill

Grasped at fleeting moments, now left chillin' in the still

Nineteen, heartbeats wild, older you, sharp but not skilled

Left me wonderin' why, fragile dreams, unfulfilled

Magical woman, was all a shade, playin' a part

Misjudged the feelin's, left echoes deep in my heart

Naive and faithful at nineteen, swayin' in the dark

Now just shadows of what was, leavin' a mark

Young, dumb, and broke, we were college kids, wild and free

You handled my heart, tossed it 'round carelessly

Ideal dreams once had me hooked, like a melody

Now memories, like old tracks, spun endlessly
