Meaning
Although “Youth” serves mainly to represent a song to his fans, Styles started in the media and entertainment world at a very young age, essentially growing up before his fans. Styles said Youth has a double meaning that is also about the fantasy of finding someone that makes you feel like half a person. It’s all about the joy, and naivety, and being lost. It’s about dropping everything and running away, making mistakes, loving too hard and how that’s okay even when it’s not.
