Songtexte: Ultravox. Accent on Youth.

What is this phase that I am going through?
Oh, these precious years
Please take my hand and let me breathe again
Young depressive tears

We stumble blindly chasing
Something new and something sinful

You take my time, you live my life for me
What have I done to rate this penalty?
You suck me dry
My body cries

We stumble blindly chasing
Instant thrills and lasting memories

Accent on youth
Attention oh
Ascends on you
Oh oh

I scream with frustration and lost control
Open for the blows
My hands fall limp and hang down by my side
Take my soul and go

We stumble blindly chasing
Dancing lights and others' wishes

Accent on youth
Attention oh
Ascends on you
Oh oh

Just let me close my eyes and slip away
Dream a dream alone
You give me just enough rope for the task
Let this man alone

We stumble blindly chasing
Silhouettes and vacant faces

So well rehearsed our moves
Once so graceful turn against us
We stalk dark passages
We're looking for that sweet surrender

Accent on youth
Attention oh
Ascends on you
Attention oh

Accent on youth
Ascends on you
