Shoreline

Ever since I was eight or nine I've been standing on the shoreline For all my life I've been waiting For something lasting You loose your hunger and you loose your way You get confused and then you fade away Oh, this town Kills you when you are young Oh, this town Kills you when you are young I'm not the boy that I used to be This town has got the youth of me All the eyes turn hollow From the work of sorrow You die young You die when you're young You die when you're young We are shadows Oh, we're shadows Just shadows in the alley (This town, this town) You're standing on the paving By the office building They've got so much to do Never time for you You die young You die when you're young You die when you're young We are shadows Oh, we're shadows Just shadows in the alley (This town, this town) I've got nothing Nothing to wait for Nothing to wait for (This town, this town, this town, this town, this town) (This town, this town, this town, this town, this town) Where is life in this town (This town, this town, this town) Where is life in this town (This town, this town, this town)
