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
