Always

Don't be alarmed, my friend

But that's all I've got

I couldn't keep my fingers off it

Don't be a stranger now

Are you willing to let it slide?

At least go easy on me

I never meant to do wrong

But I'm the kinda guy

Who always makes his music

On the run

Always

I try but I keep taking bad advice

From everyone always

Thinking back to the days

When the world was still my friend

I couldn't see the dangers in it

It took me a while to learn

That people just ain't no good

It didn't seem a choice was given

I had to fend for myself

'Cause no one else was gonna help

You're on your own again

Always

I try to trust but it's hard

When you keep getting let down always

Always

I try but I keep taking bad advice

From everyone always

Always, always, always
