lyrics

Lately you’ve been on my mind
I think your habit’s made you blind
You seem to know when things go wrong
So why were you so quiet for so long

Where were you when we were young
I thought your conscience made you strong
You always had a word to say so
Where were you when everything went bad today

You used to make such a lot of noise
Now you play with many toys
If you thought that things were going wrong
Why were you so quiet for so long

Where were you when we were young
I thought your conscience made you strong
You always had a word to say so
Where were you when everything went bad today

I close my eyes as patience flies
Did something change
When we were together

You know I’m pretty sure that you had a choice
But you kept ignoring your inner voice
You read the news just to stay ahead
But then you’d repeat everything that they said

Where were you when we were young
I thought your conscience made you strong
You always had a word to say so
Where were you when everything went bad today
