Youth Is Lost Lyrics
[Chorus]
Youth is lost, life's a rush
Kiss me here in the dandelions
You're my one true crush, crush
[Verse 1]
You only get the drama you create yourself, yeah
And you're like poetry, I know your writings well, yeah, sweet (Ah, hey hey, yeah)
Don't you wanna watch us take wings and fly?
Hey, you can't fool me, I've seen dream in your eyes
Seen the star visions, come and ride with me, yeah
And take me to the sunny side
[Chorus]
Youth is lost, life's a rush
Kiss me here in the dandelions
You're my one true crush
Feel my pulse, dangerous
Kiss me here in the dandelions
You're my one true crush, crush
[Verse 2]
Don't keep me in the dark, play a song for me now
Go make the autumn wind seem like a warm breeze, yeah, right
The cross you bear is mine to bear as well, you know, yeah
Don't you fetishize it, it'll make it growth (Growth)
Into star powder, you don't want that, baby
'Cause you're too old for that shit now!
[Verse 3]
I went to the beach, yeah (I went to the beach, yeah)
It was a summer's eve, yeah (Summer, summer's eve, yeah)
And colors, they were deep, yeah, like Ariel, I was speechless
Watching waves crashing
It reminded me of you and Venus in her shell
And then I sang to myself, I sang to myself
[Bridge]
"Youth is lost, life's a rush (Life's a rush)
Kiss me amongst the dandelions
You're my one true goddess
Feel my pulse, dangerous (Dangerous)
Kiss me beneath the dandelions
You're my one true crush, crush"
[Chorus]
Youth is lost (You know youth is lost now), life's a rush (Yeah, you know that it is)
Kiss me here in the dandelions
You're my one true crush
Feel my pulse (C'mon, feel my pulse now), dangerous (Dangerous)
Kiss me here in the dandelions
You're my one true crush, crush

What did MØ say about "Youth Is Lost"?
Like with “Kindness,” I wrote this song on top of a really cool demo instrumental sent to me by Yangze, who is a frequent collaborator on this album. “Youth Is Lost” is a tribute to the child living in my heart, but also a wish to accept that things are changing and that I have moved into a new phas...
