Taylor Swift’s Only The Young became quite popular soon after its release. Read full lyrics below.
Verse 1
- It keeps me awake, the look on your face
- The moment you heard the news
- You’re screaming inside and frozen in time
- You did all that you could do
- The game was rigged, the ref got tricked
- The wrong ones think they’re right
- You were outnumbered this time

Chorus
- But only the young, only the young
- Only the young, only the young
- Can run
- Can run
- So run, and run, and run
Verse 2
- So every day now
- You brace for the sound you’ve only heard on TV
- You go to class, scared
- Wondering where the best hiding spot would be
- And the big bad man and his big bad clan
- Their hands are stained with red
- Oh, how quickly they forget
Pre-Chorus
- They aren’t gonna help us
- Too busy helping themselves
- They aren’t gonna change this
- We gotta do it ourselves
- They think that it’s over
- But it’s just begun
Chorus
- Only one thing can save us
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young (Only the young)
- Only the young
- Only the young (Only the young; Don’t say you’re too tired to fight)
- Only the young (Only the young; It’s just a matter of time)
- Only the young (Only the young; Up there’s the finish line)
- Only the young
- Can run
Post-Chorus
- Don’t say you’re too tired to fight
- It’s just a matter of time (Can run)
- Up there’s the finish line (So run, and run, and run)
- Don’t say you’re too tired to fight
- It’s just a matter of time (So run)
- Up there’s the finish line (And run, and run, and run)
Outro
- Only the young
- Only the young
- Only the young
