Ever since i was eight or nine I've standing on the shoreline Always waiting For something lasting Loose hunger, you lose your way confused and you fade away
Oh this town Kills you when you are young Oh this town Kills when you are young
I'm the boy i used to be This has got the youth of me All eyes turn hollow From the work of sorrow
on the paving By the office building They've got so much do Never time for you
We are Oh we're shadows Shadows in the alley
You die when you're young die when you're young You die when you're young
