Shoreline

[Verse 1]

Ever since I was eight or nine

I've been standing on the shoreline

Always waiting

For something lasting

Lose your hunger, you lose your way

Get confused and you fade away

[Chorus]

Oh this town

Kills you when you are young

Oh this town

Kills you when you are young

[Verse 2]

I'm not the boy I used to be

This town has got the youth of me

All eyes turn hollow

From the work of sorrow

[Verse 3]

Standing on the paving

By the office building

They've got so much to do

Never time for you

[Bridge]

We are shadows

Oh we're shadows

Shadows in the alley

[Outro]

You die when you're young

You die when you're young

You die when you're young
