Текст песни Paul McCartney - Arrested Youth

Well it's a funny, sad, strange situation I've been in
Where everything I do is my next worst sin
I'm tired of watching life pass me by in fear

So, I lit this joint and burned a whole right through the atmosphere
'Cause I don't wanna watch life pass me by
No, I don't wanna hide away inside
Gotta get back to the basics
Step out of the matrix
Life's too short to waste it

It's a beautiful day
To step outside and hear him calling

I'm not gonna write you a sad song
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
'Cause as tempting as it seems
Well, that just isn't me
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
And I'll just let it be, let it be

Let me get my generation
Back to a point of preservation and regeneration
Where peace of mind is more important than this demonstration
Anxiety is overwhelming our radio stations
Depression is most artists' only point of conversation
Which leads to negativity and personal frustration
This frame of mind is deadly amongst many heavy faces
Ready to believe in the self-hatred that's in their playlist
How do we change this?

It's a beautiful day
To step outside and hear him calling

I'm not gonna write you a sad song
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
'Cause as tempting as it seems
Well, that just isn't me
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
And I'll just let it be, let it be
