The Foul Sounds of Youth

Sweetness - Jimmy Eat World
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Forever and Ever, Amen - The Drums
Younger Us - Japandroids

There are more songs about youth, but these four mean a lot to me. So I'm writing it down before I forget and get old. My favourite lyrics are as follows:

"If you're listening."
"If everything could ever feel this real forever, if anything could ever be this again."
"And it's forever, baby, it's forever."
"Give me younger us."

Honourable mentions:
Hard To Explain - The Strokes
Fat Lip - Sum 41
Blitzkrieg Bop - The Ramones
We Are Going To Be Friends - The White Stripes
Banquet - Bloc Party
Saria's Song - Koji Kondo
