Lyrics
Lonely People
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're too young to know what love is, our loss
Cynical eyes scanning the room for meaning
Maybe youth is wasted on the young, our loss
Travel in packs, drinking our teenage spirit
Maybe we're all clean-cut criminals
Running fast to blur the visuals
And I'm not sure I've got the heart for this
Maybe that's the hardest part of it
If we're brave enough
We won't save it up for later
Come on, show me what
Come on, show me what you're made of
I'll start the engine up
Come on, show me what you're made of
We're not damaged goods
Maybe we're just lonely people
Now I feel like we're total strangers, so what?
Monopoly minds following blind to danger
This feels like a race against the clock, tick tock
And all of our tears are rolling off silver medals
Not sure I've got the heart for this
Maybe that's the hardest part of it
If we're brave enough
We won't save it up for later
Come on, show me what
Come on, show me what you're made of
I'll start the engine up
Come on, show me what you're made of
We're not damaged goods
Maybe we're just lonely people
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh
Do we have the time to justify all these sins we try to glorify?
I think we're gonna regret these haircuts
If we're brave enough
We won't save it up for later
Come on, show me what
Come on, show me what you're made of
I'll start the engine up
Come on, show me what you're made of
We're not damaged goods
Maybe we're just lonely people
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Maybe we're just lonely people
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Maybe we're just lonely people
