Lonely
Sons Of The East Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's still fresh in my head
I tried to forget it, but I remember instead
Now once again
I'm out here in the cold
I thought I was a young man
Now I feel so old
It's never seemed so wrong
Now I'm left feeling left what you've known all along
You said I'm lonely
Lonely
And I'm lonely
‘Cause of you
We're back where we started
Seemed so long ago
I was tryna tell you before it all went up in smoke
Never made much sense
For years I knew I'd lost
You counted your blessings
And I was counting up my costs
‘Cause all that you've done
It's never seemed so wrong
Now I'm left feeling left what you've known all along
You said I'm lonely
Lonely
Lonely
‘Cause of you
Streets that I reside when I hide when it seems so rough
Without you in my life
Places that I've been and the faces that I've seen it's true
Remind me of only you
Now I'm lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
I am lonely
I am lonely
See I am lonely
And I am lonely

All that I can tell you
This is all I know
It's still fresh in my head
I remember it vividly
I tried to forget it, but I remember instead
I attempted to erase it from my memory, but I couldn't
Now once again
Here we are again
I'm out here in the cold
I feel isolated and unwanted
I thought I was a young man
I used to feel invincible
Now I feel so old
But now I feel defeated and drained
All that you've done
Everything you did
It's never seemed so wrong
It never appeared so terrible
Now I'm left feeling left what you've known all along
I now recognize what you knew from the start
You said I'm lonely
You claimed I'm alone
Lonely
So very alone
And I'm lonely
And I'm so lonesome
‘Cause of you
Because of you
We're back where we started
We've returned to where we began
Seemed so long ago
It seemed like an eternity ago
I was tryna tell you before it all went up in smoke
I tried to explain it to you before it all went away
Never made much sense
It never made sense
For years I knew I'd lost
For years I knew I had lost you
You counted your blessings
You were grateful
And I was counting up my costs
While I was calculating what I'd lost
Streets that I reside when I hide when it seems so rough
When times are difficult, I conceal myself in the streets I frequent
Without you in my life
Without you by my side
Places that I've been and the faces that I've seen it's true
The places and people I've encountered only remind me of you
Remind me of only you
They bring back memories of only you
Now I'm lonely
Now I am lonesome
Lonely
So very alone
Lonely
So very alone
Lonely
So very alone
I am lonely
I am lonesome
I am lonely
I am lonesome
See I am lonely
As you can see, I am lonesome
And I am lonely
And I am very lonesome
