Where Were You? Lyrics by Tired Lion

Dumb Days

2017

[Verse 1]
Where were you when I was growing up?
You said that you loved me too much
I know you'll always be here in the back of my head
Ripped off in a torn up summer dress
Red wine trickling down on my lips
I'm out of things to tell you
I'm out of time, where were you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Get back, I know, you see it happened once again
Step back, I know
You wanna tell me how I can't stay here...
[Chorus]
Sweep it up under the rug
Where were you when I was getting drunk?
Give it up, don't give up, all in all, it's not enough
[Verse 2]
And now I'm wasted here
(I'm wasted waiting wasted)
I'll take my time 'cause I am older
Take my pride, and take the cake
You'll be fake and I'll be faking
[Pre-Chorus]
Get back, I know, you see it happened once again
Step back, I know
You wanna tell me how I can't stay here...
[Chorus]
Sweep it up under the rug
Where were you when I was getting drunk?
Give it up, don't give up, all in all, it's not enough
Sweep it up under the rug
Where were you when I was throwing up?
Give it up don't give up
All in all, it's not enough
[Interlude]
Ahhhh la la la la lala lala lala laala oooooh aaah
[Outro]
God help me
Oh help me
I've drank enough for twenty
I'm sinking, I'm spinning
Where were you when I was getting drunk?
Oh help me
Oh help me
I've drank enough for twenty
Where were you when I was getting drunk?
Where were you when I was growing up?
