Young

Meandering around the bar
Caught in a pleasant taste of bliss
Out to have fun in unbeknownst ways
Trailing the subtle tendencies of cliff edges

Flirting with intimacy of strangers
Rubbing elbows through mystical enlightenment
Striving for personal bests
Only looking for the attention to show all

Glimpsing what defines settled
Torn between two radical views of good
Struggling to encapsulate your values
What would your parents say?

Young, wild as a lifestyle circa mindset
Wanting all the reward with no responsibilities
Seeking ideal to remain crazy
Finding the risk to make you happy

Only accepting consequences during the week
Fighting with drawing the line
Doing it to show them you can
Pushing away because the tight rope is comfortable
