Youth Of Yesterday Lyrics

Your always ending up at the bottom
(Thinking it over, you're thinking it over)
The life you've given up left you hollow
(Its too late to start over)

Don't you know you're right here on the stake
(Don't blame me)
You are the youth of yesterday
(Don't take it out on me)
We are the youth of our day
(Don't take it out)

You stumble through the land
The land of us and broken dreams

and someone else can finish this...
i cant understand all the words

You're always ending up at the bottom Oh you're thinking it over, you're thinking it over The life you've given up left you hollow Oh it's too late to start over

Don't you know your life's your own mistake? Don't blame me

You are the youth of yesterday, sorry Don't take it out on me We are the youth of a new day, sorry Don't take it out You stumbled through the land of lost and broken dreams Can't you see you're bottled up beyond belief? Don't blame me, don't blame me

Another day has gone, time for healing Oh you're thinking it over, you're thinking it over You live the past away now it's revealing Oh it's too late to start over

Don't you know your life's your own mistake? Don't blame me

You are the youth of yesterday, sorry Don't take it out on me We are the youth of a new day, sorry Don't take it out You stumbled through the land of lost and broken dreams Can't you see you're bottled up beyond belief? Don't blame me, don't blame me

You are the youth of yesterday, sorry I feel sorry for you, sorry for you 'Cause this is the life you've wasted And you are the one to blame for it Don't take it out on me 'Cause you are the one to blame for it

You are the youth of yesterday, sorry Don't take it out on me We are the youth of a new day, sorry Don't take it out You stumbled through the land of lost and broken dreams Can't you see you're bottled up beyond belief? Don't blame me, don't blame me

Well, I think the meaning is pretty straight-forward. He seems to be talking about a parent who used to have a bunch of dreams and ambitions but had to give those up most likely due to the conception of himself. Said parent has had a hard time letting go of those dreams and ambitions and wishes he/she could just go back and change his/her life so he/she could reach those dreams. But because he/she obviously can't do that, they are blaming and taking it out on their child. The child is basically saying that the parent must live with the...

Well, I think the meaning is pretty straight-forward. He seems to be talking about a parent who used to have a bunch of dreams and ambitions but had to give those up most likely due to the conception of himself. Said parent has had a hard time letting go of those dreams and ambitions and wishes he/she could just go back and change his/her life so he/she could reach those dreams. But because he/she obviously can't do that, they are blaming and taking it out on their child. The child is basically saying that the parent must live with the life they forged in their youth and should not be taking it out on them as their youth is currently the present and they have yet to forge their future and he isn't going to waste it like his parent did.
