Ultravox Lyrics of the Accent on Youth track

What is this phase that I am going through

O these precious years

Please take my hand and let me breathe again

Young depressive tears



We stumble blindly chasing something new and something sinful



You take my time you live my life for me

What have I done to rate this penalty

You suck me dry

My body cries



We stumble blindly chasing instant thrills and lasting memories



Accent on youth

Attention O

Ascends on you

O O



I scream with frustration and lost control

Open for the blows

My hands fall limp and hang down at my side

Take my soul and go



We stumble blindly chasing dancing lights and others' wishes



(Chorus)



Just let me close my eyes and slip away

Dream a dream alone

You give me just enough rope for the task

Let this man alone



We stumble blindly chasing silhouettes and vacant faces

So well rehearsed our moves once so grateful turn against us

We stalk dark passages, we're looking for that sweet surrender



(Chorus)
