Lonely Radio

I eat I sleep I go to work
I’m alone, I’m lost, I’m a big fat jerk
I’m all alone I walk this land
Looking for that elusive helping hand

It’s my fault, I get it now
Not too concerned with the why or how
Loneliness is my dark companion
Only relief in my life’s deep dark canyon

Cloudy days and dirty rocky paths
No sparkling water for my soul a bath
I could cry each and every day
But what the fuck, I am not gay

So I lie my self to sleep each night
Pretending that someday it’ll be alright
Wishing I could find that someone
And my lonely march could be undone

I fall in love, I get excited
They get spooked and then get frightened
Run away far and fast
Heaven forbid my tears don’t last

So here I sit broken hearted
Same course as yesterday; it’s well charted
Not like I haven’t been here before
Just getting frustrated; don’t I deserve more?
