![]() ![]() ![]() The person singing this song feels let down and betrayed, but also taken for a fool "you'll never know what was there to be fine" This song is about them both trying to make it work, but it just won't because of what has happened between them, they are both hoping it will turn into what it used to be before it wall went wrong, but they are in fact just living in the past. "i've walked these miles, but walked in a straight line" indicates that the relationship ended because the other person wasnt true in the relationship, which is why it's ended. The song is about someone who has just come out of a long relationship where both people fell in love at a young age and have grown up alongside one another, but now they have broken up, they are still holding on to what they had instead of acccepting it for what it has now turned into. She is confused and angry because for her the love never changed, and now she doesn't know how to stop loving the other, or move on, because she thought her younger years and older years were just going to be about them both. This song is about the realisation that the singer is actually living in the past, holding onto something that once was, but is no longer. (Interview: .uk/celebrity/entertainment/monitor/2013/06/…) Reason: (Interview: .uk/celebrity/entertainment/monitor/2013/06/…) People coming out of university, trying to find jobs… We really have a fear about direction and where they're going and whether they're going to have a career and where they are going to live. Hannah: ".when you are young, you go in and out of feeling like that, you know? Especially, I think, our generation. I also read an interview where the band talked about some of the songs from the album and the idea behind "Wasting My Young Years": Also that she's depending on someone/something from her youth and she doesn't want that person/thing to have a hold on her emotions anymore. She doesn't know who she is but she doesn't want to give up on herself or the hope that she will make it through the struggles she's having right now. The last part of the song almost seems like she's looking at a reflection of herself. I've heard it takes some time to get it right" To be patient and live without fear, love without fear.Īnd I wouldn't worry, you have all your life ![]() We may be feeling all of these doubts but we are going to feel it together, with the people we find special in our lives.īut its also telling us to keep going. We are all in the same boat, going thorough the same emotions. This part of the song makes me think of the camaraderie of being young. I feel the song is talking about that time in youth when you feel like you don't really know where you are going but you moving through the motions, outdated as they are. When I first heard this song I thought it was about the urgency and doubts of youth. ![]()
