Young
[Hollywood Undead] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We are young
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

I see the children in the rain like the parade before the pain
I see the love, I see the hate, I see this world that we can make
I see the life, I see the sky, Give it all to see you fly
Yes, we wave this flag of hatred, but you're the ones who made it
Watch the beauty of all our lies passing right before my eyes
I hear the hate in all your words. All the wars to make us hurt
We get so sick oh so sick, we never wanted all this
Medication for the kids with no reason to live

So we
March to the drums of the dammed as we come
Watch it burn in the sun, we are numb

We are young
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

As we walk among these shadows, in these streets, these fields of battle
Take it up, we wear the medal, raise your hands with burning candles
Hear us whisper in the dark, in the rain you see the spark
Feel the beating of our hearts, fleeting hope as we depart
All together, walk alone against all we've ever known
All we've ever really wanted was a place to call our home
But you take all we are; the innocence of our hearts
Made to kneel before the alter as you tear us apart

So we
March to the drums of the dammed as we come
Watch it burn in the sun, we are numb

We are young
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

We will fight or we will fall
Till the angels save us all

We will fight or we will fall
Till the angels save us all

We will fight or we will fall
Till the angels save us all

We will fight or we will fall
Till the angels save us all

We are young
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

We are young
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong




We don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Hollywood Undead's song "Young" capture not only the ethos of rebellion and discontentment, but also the uncertainty and desperation that many young people feel in a world that often seems to be falling apart. The opening lines of the song suggest that the band members feel like they don't quite fit in to the world they've been born into, but also that they have a sense of determination and resilience that allows them to persevere despite the challenges they face.


The song contrasts images of beauty and hope - "the children in the rain", "the life, the sky" - with harsh realities like hate, war, and the overmedication of youth. The lyrics suggest that the source of the world's problems may be the same people who claim to offer solutions: "We wave this flag of hatred / But you're the ones who made it." The song's message is ultimately one of defiance and hope: "We will fight or we will fall / Till the angels save us all."


Overall, "Young" is a song about finding strength and purpose in a world that seems to be falling apart. It acknowledges the difficulties and challenges of being young in a time of uncertainty and chaos, but also celebrates the resilience and determination of youth.

Another day goes by
And where was I?
Didn't think I'd still be here
Just to make things clear
What's the use?
I'm not talking sense
Call it a ruse
On myself
I wanted to go
I wanted to say
All things come to pass
With time
But I want everything now
To be all mine
You think it's all over
Get up and try again
You've got to act your age, darling
Before you fall back in
What's the use?
I'm not talking sense
Call it a ruse
On myself
I wanted to go
I wanted to say
All things come to pass
With time
But I want everything now
To be all mine

Meaning of lyrics



Another day goes by
And where was I?
(He is wasting away his days by filling his mind with sadness)



Didn't think I'd still be here
Just to make things clear
(Hes saying that he either tried suicide but survived or that he thought he would be dead now)
(Or that he hoped he wouldnt still be having trouble with whatever he is, or that he wouldnt be stuck in this spot of his life)



What's the use?
I'm not talking sense
Call it a ruse
On myself
(His insecurities are shown. He started opening up and let his feelings out but he pulls them back in, and again asks the question what the point of talking and opening up is)



I wanted to go
(Suicide, or running away from everything)


I wanted to say
All things come to pass
With time
But I want everything now
To be alright
(He knows that every bad feeling and situation in life will eventually go away but he wants it to be okay right now, he doesn’t want to feel this way anymore)



You think it's all over
Get up and try again
You've got to act your age darling
Before you fall back in
(This sets the tone of him not having anyone there for him so he has to consolidate himself. It could also paint a picture of the few positive cliché thoughts left in his head from people in his life or elsewhere.
The phrase “You’ve got to act your age darling” is something an older person would tell you so perhaps it’s words from his mother or someone similar.)

"Es confuso, ¿Verdad? Sin embargo sabes perfectamente cuando estás mal, todo en tu cuerpo, fisica y mentalmente te lo hace saber... Te notas flojo, con pensamientos fatalistas... Esa sensación de que está todo perdido, de que ya nada volverá a ser como antes... Te torturas recordando una vivencia pasada aleatoria que en aquel entonces ni siquiera parecía un buen momento pero comparado a como te sientes ahora, podría decirse que... Fuiste feliz sin saberlo..."
