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)
