To Know We Were Young
by Taurenelle
We laughed, and we drank, and we loosened our tongues.
We lived for the feeling; we lived for the taste.
When we were too stupid to know we were young.
Flirting on end until our flings were all flung,
Enchanting and chasing and being unchaste.
We laughed, and we drank, and we loosened our tongues.
We rolled, and we filtered and filled up our lungs,
Caressing the cells that would soon be erased.
When we were too stupid to know we were young.
Stuffing our faces while our skin was still sprung,
Expanding our pleasures, ignoring our waist
We laughed, and we drank, and we loosened our tongues.
We sang out of tune, but our songs were still sung,
Dancing disgracefully but never disgraced.
When we were too stupid to know we were young.
These are the memories on which joy is hung,
Which can't be forgotten, relived, or replaced.
We laughed, and we drank, and we loosened our tongues,
When we were too stupid to know we were young.
