Loyal to No One

[Verse 1]

I first met this man by the Capen Street tracks

In no shape for success, headed nowhere too fast

He may have been someone once by the sound of his call

Now he answers to no one, no one at all

[Verse 2]

"We all die alone," he shouted as he passed

With no sense of regret, see, he never looked back

For his pride was wounded, his ego was strong

Yeah, that was his trouble, and this is his song

[Chorus]

You said we die alone, in this case, you were right

No friends by your side or family in sight

There'll be no talking your way out this time

So don't count the cash, 'cause you leave it behind

[Verse 3]

His friends come and go like the seasons and tides

He can't keep a women, they all realize

He loves them, leaves them, takes what he needs

He's loyal to no one, no one at all

[Verse 4]

You were brought up well, still in spite of it all

You're touched by nothing, watch a man fall

Put a foot on his back to get a better view

'Cause you're loyal to no one, no one but you

[Chorus]

You said we die alone, in this case, you were right

No friends by your side or family in sight

There'll be no talking your way out this time

So don't count the cash, 'cause you leave it behind

[Verse 5]

He was broken and tired, wouldn't take a hand

Their kindness was simple but he couldn't understand

See, it's hard to have faith in something so new

When you're loyal to no one, no one but you

[Chorus]

You said we die alone, in this case, you were right

No friends by your side or family in sight

There'll be no talking your way out this time

So don't count the cash, 'cause you leave it behind

[Outro]

You said we die alone, in this case you were right

No friends by your side or family in sight
