Track 2 from the These Guitars Say Sorry album "We Were Younger Then", lyrics and instruments by These Guitars Say Sorry, a solo English singer-songwriter now living and performing in the Pacific Northwest in the USA.

lyrics

Why don't you cut me? I doubt that I'll bleed
It'll make you feel better, It's just what you need

I'm turning the lights out in the hope we can see
The drunk, the depressed, the blind and the weak

If only we weren't so damn lonely
We have to pretend we're alive we're alive
If only someone would have told me
You wanted to hold me
I'd have cried
I'd have cried

Inside these four walls we pay for our sins
Are they keep them out? Or keeping us in?

Closing the curtains away from their eyes
Pretending we're perfect we practice our lies

If only we weren't so damn lonely
We have to pretend we're alive we're alive
If only someone would have told me
You wanted to hold me
I'd have cried
I'd have cried

And all the things you ever promised
Were just to help you take things from me
And at the end when I have nothing
I can't help thinking it's what you wanted
An empty house, an empty bed
There's nowhere here to lay my head
An empty house, an empty bed
There's nowhere here to lay my head

And if I grow older does it mean I've grown up
As I cry on your shoulder
I've seen more than enough
If I'm tiring of fun am I tiring of life
I smile for a moment and then wonder why

If only we weren't so damn lonely
We have to pretend we're alive we're alive
If only someone would have told me
You wanted to hold me
I'd have cried
I'd have cried
