Purple Jungle - Fading Youth Lyrics

[Verse]
Innocence left on the playground swing
Childhood dreams on tired wings
Faces fade and time's a thief
Youth dissolves like autumn leaves

[Verse 2]
Broken toys and shattered gold
Stars that once felt close now cold
Heartbeats echo empty halls
Picturing lives behind glass walls

[Chorus]
Goodbye to carefree nights and wonder
Hello to fears we've grown under
Traded laughter for silent groans
Lost in a world that's overgrown

[Verse 3]
Schoolyard friends drift apart
Life's cruel trick tears at the heart
Wishing on a star once bright
Now feels distant lost to night

[Bridge]
Seasons change we grasp at sand
Years slip through an open hand
Bitter truth the cards dealt
A mounting weight forever felt

[Chorus]
Goodbye to carefree nights and wonder
Hello to fears we've grown under
Traded laughter for silent groans
Lost in a world that's overgrown

[Chorus]
Goodbye to carefree nights and wonder
Hello to fears we've grown under
Traded laughter for silent groans
Lost in a world that's overgrown

[Bridge]
Seasons change we grasp at sand
Years slip through an open hand
Bitter truth the cards dealt
A mounting weight forever felt

[Chorus]
Goodbye to carefree nights and wonder
Hello to fears we've grown under
Traded laughter for silent groans
Lost in a world that's overgrown
