Paper Kites, The - Young Lyrics






We only wake 'cause our eyes are open
Open so wide we walk in the dark
Trying so hard to keep what we're losing
Using our feet to show them the movements

And they wake up, and they go out
Head in a cloud

We were like them before we were older
Just like they're grow to be as we are
And still only speak with wording of caution
Sow and we reap what we're putting forward

And they wake up, and they go out
Head in a cloud

We can look down, see what we were
Shaking our fingers and using our words
We're all awake; we don't go out
Head in a cloud

Rush goes to the head it's all perception
I know, even so we all need time to grow

    A perfect song with perfect lyrics and a perfect video about goofing about finding yourself as a youngster.

  6. G.... F....

    Slow it down to 0.25x and catch the faces in the middle of transforming. Creepy af

  7. W.... T....

    Man!What a video!

  8. i.... ....

  21. S.... S....

    I want to know how many distinct people are there in the video.

  22. N.... L....

    3:22 ;)

  23. M.... A....

    The second this started playing, I felt a pang of happiness. The likes of which I don’t think I’ve felt in this way before

  24. N.... ....

    editing this must be hell

  25. M.... P....

    Want my free flow
    But afraid
    You’ll get flooded
    You open up
    You’ll see
    I’ve always been there
    Just waiting
    For you
    To let down your hair
    Let it
    Free flow
    You’ll see me and know
    I’ve been you in a different
    Dimension
    We were meant
    For transmission
    The emission
    Helps us make the right decision

    So many differences
    and so much the same
    I want to know it all
    Wouldn’t dare push you down
    I’ll keep you from falling
    and take you to town
    Some might frown
    But others will wish
    They could wear that gown

    You won’t have to escape
    Fences have gates
    Walls
    Have doors
    Contained
    Yet you can come and go
    Again and again
    Windows let others look in
    When we want them
    Let me
    Look in
    There is no sin
    Until we take that step
    We don’t begin
    All I want
    Is to be your friend

  26. Y.... M....

    im in 1:40:0000000001

  52. T.... F....

    Music video level: OK GO

  53. D.... ....

    This is what I imagine dreams looking like

  54. T.... ....

    The video is a classic epileptical initiiating method. Shame. Impossible to look at.

  55. J.... R....

    Beautiful .. otherwise speechless

  56. s.... T....

    That song makes my day better.Thanks :,)

  57. S.... R....

  59. G.... A....

    So this is how that guard from Skyrim must have felt when he saw me creating my character....

  60. V.... ....

    I simply love this song

  61. V.... ....

    They rused some of the face. But it just is so cool how it creates this illusion of like it's a person but the face changes!! Wow.

  62. i.... k....

    This video is very discriminatory against the folicly challenged

  63. C.... C....

    Paper kites such a cool band ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋🙏🏻🙏🏻💋💋❤️

  64. �.... ....

    what the fuck try hard low budj am i watching

    �.... ....

    why is the coment section getting their nut off, its literally insta story facials, at rapid speed/////

  65. L.... Z....

    Your music always makes me feel some kind of way. I can't describe it in exact words but I love it.

  66. i.... ....

    it must have been a real pain in the ass editing this video

  67. J.... D....

    Speed 0.25!!

  68. K.... ....

    They refused people
    Saw the same curly moustache three times

  69. G.... ....

    This video = Arya Stark

  70. C.... C....

    What a VIDEO!!!!! - Mesmerizing!

  71. N.... W....

    why is everyone so WHITE?

  72. V.... C....

    this is the greatest music video ever made in the world

  73. f.... ....

    I wonder how many people are in this video? There must be a count somewhere

  74. A.... ....

    i love it

  75. W.... ....

    watch at 2x speed

  76. G.... A....

    Play and Pause and Play and Pause and Play and Pause and Play and End

  77. D.... H....

    Imagine if we did a music video like this and somehow got a picture of everyone in the world and we all try desparately to pause it and see our friends and family's faces. I feel like that'd be so cool. You could even go from youngest to oldest and show the whole world slowly aging through every person. Lol. Obviously couldn't happen but just imagine. 💗

    D.... H....

    At 24 fps, the video would be almost 10 years long.

  78. K.... K....

    Why is this not more popular

  79. N.... L....

    if you blink once you'll miss the 2 hours of wonderful edit.

  80. J.... B....

    One of the faces at 0:54, is he the lead singer for Paper Kites? Or he just looks like him? Also at 1:04, its him again! :)

    J.... B....

    And at 1:18 :)

    J.... B....

    All of them are in the video :) And they use the same set of people :) I'm estimating 30 to 50 people.

  81. H.... i....

    pause-play-pause-play-pause-play-pause-play-pause-play-pause-play

  82. p.... c....

    that editing

  83. C.... S....

    That was tiring my eyes out but cool!

  84. s.... o....

    The song is very beautiful and so is the video but I despise the fact that they just use well off white people

  85. A.... R....

    If you pause the video at the exact moment you will find Daniel Radcliff, good luck¡ :)

  86. S.... ....

    Interesting looking people

  87. N.... D....

    so good

  88. E.... P....

    We only wake 'cause our eyes are open
    Open so wide we walk in the dark
    Trying so hard to keep what we're losing

    Head in a cloud

    We were like them before we were older
    Just like they're grow to be as we are

    Shaking our fingers and using our words
    We're all awake; we don't go out
    Head in a cloud

    Rush goes to the head it's all perception
    I know, even so we all need time to grow

  89. P.... G....
