Stiff Little Fingers - When We Were Young lyrics

Your rating:

It doesn't seem so long now

The world was at your feet

You'd all those friends around you then

Your life was really "neat"

You're alone again with nothing

And they've all disappeared

Wake up to life

Stand up, fight back

You've everything to gain

They say that it's all over

I say: "Like hell it is"

They told us the same lies when we were young



I wish you could see through them

Your "buddy buddy" friends

You bought them drinks, they watched you sink

And bailed out at the end

You're better off without them

Although you just can't see

Let's make a start

It's not that hard

Together, you and me

They'll say that we can't do it

I say: "Let's show 'em how"

Prove them wrong the way we did when we were young



When we were young

When we were young

They told us the same lies

When we were young



When they said that you'd get nowhere

Did your life tear at the seams?

Or did you wake up the next day

More determined than you'd been?



It's time to look around you

Take stock of what you've done

Of what you're worth

Of those who care

And those who cut and run

It's time to start believing

That you just can't be beat

Your own best friend

True to the end

Stand on your own two feet

They'll say it's self delusion

I say: "It's self belief"

Let's show them how we were when we were young



They say that it's all over

I say: "Like hell it is"

They'll say it's self delusion

I say: "It's self belief"

Back when we were young

Back when we were young
