Paroles de 15 years

I never was a violent man
Said the man in the bar with his head in his hands
He's trying his best to understand the cause of his dismay
But the years of gin have broken him
It's left him cold where he fitted in
But it's too late to turn around and find another way

Chorus
And the laughs in the late night lock-in have faded away when comes in
The girl of fifteen years ago has packed and gone away

That's never how it used to be
What happened to all that energy
You took one too many liberties
I'm tired of being afraid

So after the fight she took flight
With swollen eyes and a wounded pride
The best years of her life denied
And sold for liquid shares

Chorus

And the victims of their world are advertised on posters
Just a beach and pretty girl
You just take this potion

Its another week till his cheque comes through
He's got a fiver left now to spend on food
The doors to the bars are open
Then he breaks another rule

Well he sits on a stool that bear his name
Got a favourite glass but its called the same
He's never been kept waiting
Cause he pays the landlords wage
