Loner

Being born is a curse, dyin' young's worse
And finding love is the meaning of life
And in the land of the freedom, invisible chains
You get what you pay for, sometimes you pay twice
And you go through the motions, confused and alone
And wonder why the truth ain't easy to see
And they put through school and tell you you're grown
Then put you to work to buy shit you don't need
What's the matter with being a loner?
Even a nobody's somebody too
Even the bums on the street are just dreamers
Facin' the crowd, no different than you
No different than you
No different than you
If you don't fit the mold, they'll call you a failure
You travel too much and they'll say that you're lost
And you can take your pick, you either came from an ape
Or the debt of a magic man up on a cross
And loneliness follows, it's always there with you
Through marriages, mortgages, sickness, and health
And you can fight your whole life to be who you are
Then decide that you'd rather be somebody else
What's the matter with a being a loner?
Even a nobody's somebody too
Even the bums on the street are just dreamers
Facin' the crowd, no different than you
No different than you
No different than you
No different than you
