Always Lyrics by John Gorka

Old Futures Gone

0

I will always be lonely
Nothing's ever gonna change that
It's the way that I'm wired
It's the way that I'm set back

From the man in the mainstream
From the crown in the highway
I will always be lonely
It's the way that I am

I was born in this city
I grew up in this country
Used to work in a factory
Didn't like it exactly

When the road gets bumpy
Try not to get too jumpy
Or your head'll get lumpy
End up looking like me

I will always be lonely
A blue crack in a spare part
A red line through a head start
A round world with a square heart

I will always be lonely
It's so low-powered
No cables, no towers
No kilowatt-hours

I will always be lonely
It's what I'm going on about
Love is hope without doubt
Hate is fear turned out

I will always be lonely
It's a chronic fever
That burns the achiever
Bring on the reliever

I will always be lonely
Nothing's ever gonna change that
It's the way that I'm wired
It's the way that I'm set back

From the main in the mainstream
From a crown in the highway
I will always be lonely
It's the way that I am

You know the ones that I'm proud of
Are the ones who allow love
Many lost in a crowd of
People gone by

I will always be lonely
A blue crack in a spare part
A red line through a head start
A round world with a square heart

I will always be lonely
Nothing's ever gonna change that
It's the way that I'm wired
It's the way that I'm set back

From the man in the mainstream
From a crown in the highway
I will always be lonely
It's the way that I am

I will always be lonely
It's the way that I am
