Flash - Midnight Youth

It’s hard, in a flash, to let you go

It’s hard, in a flash, to let you go

When we were young we were told, that we could just be boys and let our dreams

unfold

And as we grew we lived a sheltered life, a modern life that let us run and play

But it’s tough when God comes crashing in, to keep your soul at peace

And It’s tough to do this growing up, when driven to your knees

And it’s hard, in a flash, to let you go

Oh, it’s hard, in a flash, to let you go

Playing songs of the past

Sharing the meals we would share is how we deal

With the sheathing of our skin, and the thought that we could win against all

odds

When it’s tough when God comes crashing in, to set your soul on fire

And it’s tough to keep this love alive, when stripped of your desire

When the filaments behind my eyes, are rusted, rotted, burnt

Then I think of you and all is bright, a flash among the burn

But it’s tough when God comes crashing in, to keep your soul at rest

And it’s tough to do this growing up, when delivered such a test

But we fight and strive to live the life, that you had hoped to lead

And we’re drinking in your honor, even though you’ll never leave us

Cos it’s true

Yes, it’s true

Oh, it’s true

I love you
