[Verse 1]
My brother opened up my bedroom door
A grin, the sight of me on my floor
He said, "Please tell me all the things about you that I'd never know"
He said, "Please tell me all the things about you that I didn't know"
And I said

[Chorus]
"Woah, it's a shame, it's a shame that you're so young and I'm so empty"
"Woah, it's a shame, it's a shame that you're so young and I'm so empty"

[Verse 2]
Mature beyond my years is just a figure of speech
And I have no shame in what my father preached to me when I was a boy
So what am I doing wrong?
I know I won't be this young forever
I'll take my time growing old
It won't get the best of me

[Chorus]
"Woah, it's a shame, it's a shame that you're so young and I'm so empty"
"Woah, it's a shame, it's a shame that you're so young and I'm so..."

[Outro]
I know I won't be the one to break these chains off my body
