Lyrics

Someday, in some way

Sometime in the future, in some manner

Everybody's gonna let you down

Everyone will disappoint you

Everybody's gonna let you down

Reiterating that everyone will let you down

I knew that you would

The speaker expected that outcome from you too

'Cause everybody's gonna let you down

Because it's inevitable that everyone will disappoint

Everybody's gonna let you down

Repeating the sentiment that everyone will let you down

So, don't lean on me, I'll only let you down

Requesting not to depend on the speaker as they'll also disappoint


I gotta warn ya

The speaker wants to caution or forewarn

'Cause what if I become my mother's son

What if the speaker ends up like their mother's child?

Fornication, and with no hesitation

Engaging in sexual intercourse without hesitation

I just run all night, it's a lonely life

The speaker spends their nights alone, leading a lonely life

Are you lonely right?

Asking if you also feel lonely

Well, let me down easy

Requesting to be let down gently


How long? So long

Asking how much longer this will continue

Everybody's gonna let you down, yes

Asserting that everyone will let you down

Everybody's gonna let you down

Repeating the sentiment of everyone disappointing

Go on, so long

Continuing with the idea of saying goodbye because of inevitable letdowns

You're always gonna let me down 'cause

Assuming that you'll always disappoint because everyone does

Everybody's gonna let you down

Restating the belief that everyone will let you down


Got no faith in the human will

No trust in human determination or resolve

Have you still?

Asking if you still have faith despite everything


I gotta warn ya

Reiterating the speaker's caution or forewarning

'Cause what if I become my mother's son

What if the speaker becomes like their mother's child?

Reputation, and with no hesitation

Building a reputation without hesitation

I just run all night, it's a lonely life

Spending nights alone, leading a lonely life

Are you lonely right?

Inquiring if you also feel lonely

Well, let me down easy

Asking to be let down gently

Everybody's gonna let you down, yes

Reaffirming that everyone will disappoint you

Everybody's gonna let you down

Repeating the sentiment that everyone will let you down

So don't lean on me

Requesting not to depend on the speaker as they'll also disappoint

I'll only let you down

Emphasizing that relying on the speaker will lead to disappointment


I gotta warn ya

Reiterating the speaker's caution or forewarning

'Cause what if I become my mother's son

What if the speaker becomes like their mother's child?

Fornication, and with no hesitation

Engaging in sexual intercourse without hesitation

I just run all night, it's a lonely life

Living a solitary life, running all night

Are you lonely right?

Asking if you also feel lonely

Well, let me down easy

Requesting to be let down gently
