When I was young by The Oppressed Lyrics
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I lost my liberty for causing an affray
But now I'm older and much wiser than before
I’ve done my time and I ain't going back for more
When I was young...
Just punks on alcohol, I drunk too much again
My mindless violence was the cause of all their pain
There's no excuses for the damage that I done
It could’ve gone too far, I could've killed someone
And now I realise, the errors of my youth
I've left that life behind coz now I know the truth
My eyes are open now and I will only fight
If I can justify that what I do is right
I lost my liberty for causing an affray
But now I'm older and much wiser than before
I’ve done my time and I ain't going back for more
When I was young...
Just punks on alcohol, I drunk too much again
My mindless violence was the cause of all their pain
There's no excuses for the damage that I done
It could’ve gone too far, I could've killed someone
And now I realise, the errors of my youth
I've left that life behind coz now I know the truth
My eyes are open now and I will only fight
If I can justify that what I do is right
