Loner

Being born is a curse, dying young is worse Finding love is the meaning of life And in the land of the freedom, invisible chains You get what you pay for, sometimes you pay twice And you go through the motions confused and alone And wonder why truth ain't easy to see And they put you through school and tell you you're grown And put you to work to buy shit you don't need What's the matter with being a loner? Even a nobody's somebody too Even the bums on the street are just dreamers A face in the crowd no different than you No different than you No different than you And if you don't fit the mold, they call you a failure You travel too much and they'll say that you're lost And you can take your pick, you either came from an ape Or the dad of a magic man up on a cross And loneliness follows, it's always there with you Through marriages, mortgages, sickness, and health And you can fight your whole life to be who you are Then decide if you'd rather be somebody else What's the matter with being a loner? Even a nobody's somebody too Even the bums on the street are just dreamers A face in the crowd no different than you No different than you No different than you No different than you
