You were born in a confident night
On a gasp of a confident year.
In the photos a father is holding us close
As the fear flies around our ears.

Being raised in a confident home
We only had to fave the one
And our future was there in the friends that we made
And the sound of the music we heard.
 [bad word] 
No need to cry, no worries here, it’s under control
‘cause boys born in confident times are gonna know.
We’re gonna know.
We’re gonna know.
We’re gonna know.

(Bridge)
You were born in a confident night
You were born in a confident night.

(Verse)
When it’s quiet I can still feel the womb
From the weeks that we took in the south.
As I see it, the light is just soft on your skin
And the glass is raised to your mouth.

I find myself catching sight of you sometimes
In the way someone turns their head
Oh, we couldn’t resent that you left
But like you said, you had no regrets.
 [bad word] 
No need to cry, no worries here, it’s under control
‘cause boys born in confident times are gonna know.
We’re gonna know.
We’re gonna know.
We’re gonna know.

(Bridge)
You were born in a confident night
You were born in a confident night.
