New Jersey five-piece, Youth In Revolt are exactly what their name describes; a group of young men who weren't born to follow the trends, live the life stereotypical America laid out for them, or listen to anyone that tells them other than what they feel is right. As the band awaits the release of it's debut EP Love Is A Liar's Game, industry officials and a welcomed pre-release fan base are buzzing with excitement over what everyone knows will be the next staple of the music scene. Lead by front-man True Arahill, who has amassed an enormous YouTube and Twitter following on his own via top notch cover videos showcasing his angelic yet powerful voice, the band draws influence from musical entities such as Sleeping With Sirens and Of Mice and Men. With sinister riffs, heavy breakdowns, an array of catchy choruses, and the missing ingredient in today's scene of cleanly sung verses, Youth In Revolt's sound is nothing to be considered forgettable. With a mature and positive direction, the band and team are strapping in for a ground-breaking album which will pave their way to the top.
For the First Time
Youth in Revolt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh whoa, whoa
Close your eyes and realize that we were meant for this
'Cause when the moment's right it'll all make sense
We played our part, we broke some hearts
It wasn't easy but we've come this far
Close your eyes and realize that we were meant for this
I waited all night just to find you
'Cause when the time's right you will find me too
I'll stay here all night if you want to
'Cause for the first time
'Cause for the first time feels like something true
Oh whoa, whoa
Yeah
Oh whoa, whoa
Ooh, yeah
Close your eyes and realize that we were meant for this
'Cause when the moment's right it'll all make sense
You know I'm made for you, you're made for me
And we're exactly where we need to be
Close your eyes and realize that we were made for so much more
I waited all night just to find you
'Cause when the time's right you will find me too
I'll stay here all night if you want to
'Cause for the first time
'Cause for the first time feels like something true
If you wait for me
I'll stay for you
I'm lookin' up at the stars
Wondering if you can see them too
If you wait for me
You know I'll be with you
I'm holdin' on to the only thing
That I've ever felt was true
I waited all night just to find you
'Cause when the time's right you will find me too
I waited all night just to find you
'Cause when the time's right you will find me too
I'll stay here all night if you want to
'Cause for the first time
'Cause for the first time feels like something true
'Cause for the first time
'Cause for the first time feels like something true
'Cause for the first time
'Cause for the first time feels like something true
