Been working a 40 hour per week desk job and been listening to this song since it came out in 2013. I was 25 and feeling that I was indeed wasting my young years but thought that it would all be worth it in the future. Didn't happen. Now that I'm close to 31 I look back and all I see is time either spent studying, working student jobs or just working. I wish I had done a lot of things differently , I wish I would have travelled more, met more new people, spent less time behind a desk or a computer thinking "I still have time to live my life, I just have to finish this paper, this episode, this 100000000th whatsapp message, this final exam". Before you know it time is up and you realise you've spent your entire 20s hoping for a perfect future instead of enjoying the great present. I hope at least one person reads this and decides to go out more, do a little bit more of what they really like and enjoy their young years while they still have the opportunity to.

43 yo here , I have a message for all the youngsters : you don t waste your time , you learn , through pain for the most of you . Do not give up , one day you ll understand . Try to be the best of yourself , ask for help if needed , it is worth it . Don T be afraid to move on and come back if needed . You ll never start over from zero .
Take care kids . Life is a trip , not a destination .

Im 61. Yet often, very often, I feel young. Or maybe Iām just yearning for those days of yore. I feel great but I have not come to accept that Iām 61. It feels unbelievable that I am 61. Time goes so fast. So fast! My humble advice is enjoy youth, itās such a small percentage of a full life. Thereās just so much time to be an adult! Itās most of your life! Enjoy youth, donāt do something that you will regret the rest of your life. I know, I know: fun and wisdom are often at odds. But trust me, have fun but within reason. I have really enjoyed all your comments. Iām learning from them and hope that one day, willingly, I accept old age. Part of it is that I feel great (thank God) and Iām fit, have all my hair still š. But man, when I saw High: Confessions, when this song came on I had to stop and get the full version. It mesmerized me and all the comments from young people here, their worries and regrets, itās like butterflies in my stomach. Enjoy life! But within reason so that you CAN grow older, peacefully, simply, with less stress and angst. Thank all of you!šš»

At 46 just been given the devastating news that I have cancer and have 18 months maybe 2 years. Love London Grammer and this track seems so poignant at the moment , luckily when I look back over my life I feel that Iāve wasted very little of my young years . My advice to anybody young would be put down your phones. Instead, see, love and laugh together with your friends and familyās. Be good to each other , cut out negative thoughts , donāt judge people you donāt know and donāt be judged by people that donāt know you. Life can short but a life lived well is never wasted, I might not be here for much longer but I hope the memories of the fun and adventures Iāve shared will go on for a long time. On the positive Iāve booked to see Hannah and the guys in Manchester in November (š¤illness and COVID willing) canāt bloody wait.

I love the sound and the sentiment; I still wonder. But, here I am at 62 years old (how the fuck did that happen?) and everything good and bad that has happened to me has made me who I am. I didn't travel until my 40's (with my kids) I didn't follow my dream of building and designing my home until my 50's, and I didn't get the job I deserved until I was 60. Don't ever limit yourself because of your age - build on every experience, keep learning and don't believe that the only good years are the early ones - there are lots more to come!

You crossed this line
Do you find it hard to sit with me tonight?
I've walked these miles but I've walked 'em straight lined
You'll never know what was like to be fine
I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter if
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter if
Maybe
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Don't you know that it's only fear
I wouldn't worry, you have all your life
I've heard it takes some time to get it right
I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter if
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter if
Maybe
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
I don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on
Don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on

I think the feeling of wasting your time is permanent in a society that compares everything. Social Media has had huge pressure on all of us and make us think everybody has a better life than us.
Sit down, write all the things you are proud and thankful for and look back at your life with love. If not, then write the things you want to do/accomplish and start changing your routines.
It's worth it.
