Hard days made me
Hard nights shape me
I don't know
They somehow saved me
And I know I'm making something
Out of this life they call nothing
I take what I want take what I need
They say it's wrong but it's right for me
I won't look down won't say I'm sorry
I know that only God can judge me

And if I make it through today
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running in place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?

'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they said
I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care
I don't care

And no one in this industry
Understands the life I lead
When I sing about my past
It's not a gimmick not an act
These critics and these trust-fund kids
They try to tell me what punk is
But when I see them on the street they got nothing to say (nothing to say, say, say)

And if I make it through today
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running on place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?

'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they said
I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care

I don't care
I don't care
No, I don't care

I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they said
And I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
