Always
Gavin James Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What am I supposed to do without you?
Is it too late to pick the pieces up?
Too soon to let them go?
Do you feel damaged just like I do?
Your face, it makes my body ache
It won't leave me alone

And this feels like drowning
Trouble sleeping
Restless dreaming

You're in my head
Always, always
I just got scared
Away, away
I'd rather choke on my bad decisions
Then just carry them to my grave
You're in my head
Always, always, always

Cracks won't fix and the scars won't fade away
I guess I should get used to this
The left side of my bed's an empty space
I remember we were strangers
So tell me what's the difference
Between then and now

And why does this feel like drowning?
Trouble sleeping
Restless dreaming

You're in my head
Always, always
I just got scared
Away, away
I'd rather choke on my bad decisions
Then just carry them to my grave
You're in my head
Always, always, always
Always, always

You're in my head
Always, always
I just got scared
Away, away
I know there's nothing left to cling to
But I'm still calling out your name
You're in my head
Always, always, always





Always, always, always

Overall Meaning

The song "Always" by Gavin James has a melancholic tone to it, with lyrics that suggest a sense of loss and longing that the singer is feeling. The opening lines indicate that the singer has lost someone important to them, and they are struggling to come to terms with it. They ask themselves, "what am I supposed to do without you?", indicating that their life feels incomplete without this person. They also suggest that they might be considering trying to put the pieces back together again, but they are unsure if it is too late for that.


The chorus of the song is where the intensity of the feeling comes through. The singer sings about how this person is always in their head, and they feel like they are drowning. They are having trouble sleeping and their dreams are restless. They are scared and they are clinging onto the memory of this person, even though they know they should let go. The line "I'd rather choke on my bad decisions than just carry them to my grave" suggests that the singer is willing to suffer the consequences of their actions, as long as they can hold onto the memory of this person.


The second verse of the song reinforces the themes of loss and emptiness. The singer describes the physical absence of this person, as the left side of their bed is now unoccupied. Despite this, they still remember when they were strangers and wonders what happened between then and now. The singer expresses confusion and hurt, and their feelings are amplified in the chorus once again.


Overall, "Always" is a song that delves into the complexity of human emotions when dealing with a significant loss. Gavin James captures the mood with his soulful vocals and honest lyrics, making it a song that many people can relate to.

What am I supposed to do without you?
Is it too late to pick the pieces up?
Too soon to let them go?
Do you feel damaged just like I do?
Your face, it makes my body ache
It won't leave me alone

And this feels like drowning
Trouble sleeping
Restless dreaming

You're in my head
Always, always
I just got scared away, away
I'd rather choke on my bad decisions
Than just carry them to my grave
You're in my head
Always, always, always

Cracks won't fix and the scars won't fade away
Guess I should get used to this
The left side of my bed, an empty space
I remember we were strangers
So tell me what's the difference
Between then and now

And why does this feel like drowning?
Trouble sleeping
Restless dreaming

You're in my head
Always, always
I just got scared away, away
I'd rather choke on my bad decisions
Than just carry them to my grave
You're in my head
Always, always, always

Always, always, always

Always, always
I just got scared away, away
I know there's nothing left to cling to
But I'm still calling out your name
You're in my head
Always, always, always

Always, always, always
