Always Something
Endless Struggle: Losing, Learning, and Moving On
Lyrics
On and on I disregarded
Expressing a continuous disregard for something significant.
Signs that said you’d go
Acknowledging signs or warnings predicting the departure of someone.
You know that I could never fight it
Admitting vulnerability and inability to resist a certain outcome.
I can’t take the blow
Unable to endure the emotional impact or consequence.
Gave you away before I’d ever known it
Unintentionally revealing or losing something important prematurely.
Lonely evermore, more.....
Emphasizing a persistent state of loneliness.
Now I lost a friend
Acknowledging the loss of a friendship.
It’s all the same now
Stating that the current situation is now the same or unchanged.
No one to blame now like I did back then
Accepting responsibility without blaming others, contrasting with past behavior.
Now they know name
Recognition that one's name is now known.
And they keep on runnin
Observing that others are persistently avoiding or escaping.
It’s always something
Highlighting the recurring nature of challenges or issues.
And it goes on and on
Emphasizing the continuous and enduring nature of the mentioned challenges.
All the talk is overrated
Stating that discussions or rumors are given more importance than deserved.
Obviously you know
Acknowledging awareness of a situation despite its exaggeration.
I give it away ya know I’m misbehaving
Confessing to giving away something, possibly related to misbehavior.
Eyes crossed on the floor
Describing a state of confusion or disorientation.
You know I’m home before I even know it
Unknowingly returning home before realizing it.
Lonely evermore, more
Reiterating a sense of enduring loneliness.
Now I lost a friend
Repeating the acknowledgment of losing a friend.
It’s all the same now
Reaffirming the unchanging nature of the current situation.
No one to blame now like I did back then
Taking responsibility without assigning blame, similar to past behavior.
Now they know name
Confirming that others now recognize one's name.
And they keep on runnin
Observing that others persist in avoiding or escaping.
It’s always something
Reiterating the perpetual nature of challenges or issues.
And it goes on and on
Highlighting the continuous and enduring nature of the mentioned challenges.
I never show it
Acknowledging the concealment of emotions until reaching a point of overload.
Not til I’m overloaded
Emphasizing being better off without revealing emotions.
I hear em sayin
Noticing or hearing comments about the mentioned person.
He’s better off instead
Suggesting that the mentioned person is in a better state now.
But I think I’m tired
Expressing fatigue and weariness.
And I been so sad about
Admitting to feeling sorrowful about a situation.
They never tell ya
Highlighting the absence of certain information or insights.
Some books, they’re never read
Noting that some experiences or lessons are never learned.
Now I lost a friend
Repeating the acknowledgment of losing a friend.
It’s all the same now
Reaffirming the unchanging nature of the current situation.
No one to blame now like I did back then
Taking responsibility without assigning blame, similar to past behavior.
Now they know name
Confirming that others now recognize one's name.
And they keep on runnin
Observing that others persist in avoiding or escaping.
It’s always something
Reiterating the perpetual nature of challenges or issues.
And it goes on and on
Highlighting the continuous and enduring nature of the mentioned challenges.
