  • When did we forget
    All the crazy things that made us feel so part of it?
    Our youth, so confident
    We played our heartstrings
    Not caring if it ends
    Try to learn to let go of all those things that tie you down
    Get rid of it, the voice inside that tells me that
    I'm scared, yeah, scared as shit
    But I wanna let go of it now
    So someone tell me

    Why so serious?
    Why are we so serious?
    Oh, why so serious?
    When did we get like this?
    I still remember we weren't grown up like this
    Oh, oh

    I don't seem to get all the things that are happening
    And I can't make sense of everything that's inside my head
    But I keep on thinking, there's gotta be something said
    Oh, seems we've lost it
    That spark inside that tells us it's all nonsense
    Stop being so cautious
    With every mistake there comes a lesson learned
    So someone tell me

    Why so serious? (Serious)
    Why are we so serious?
    Oh, why so serious? (Serious)
    When did we get like this?
    I still remember we weren't grown up like this
    Oh, oh
    Why so serious? (Serious)
    Why are we so serious?
    Oh, why so serious? (Serious)
    Can someone tell me
    Did we forget about
    Living with no regrets?
    Oh, oh

    I wanna live in the now
    I'm not gonna live in the past
    Don't wanna care about what-ifs
    'Cause what if those things don't last?
    And I wanna live with no regrets
    I wanna live in the now
    I'm not gonna live in the past
    Don't wanna care about what-ifs
    'Cause what if those things don't last?
    And I wanna live with no regrets
    So someone tell me
    Why so serious?

    Why so serious? (Serious)
    Why are we so serious?
    Oh, why so serious? (Serious)
    When did we get like this?
    I still remember we weren't grown up like this
    Ooh, oh
    Why so serious? (Serious)
    Why are we so serious?
    Oh, why so serious? (Serious)
    Can someone tell me
    Did we forget about
    Living with no regrets? Writer/s: Alice Merton, Nicholas Rebscher
