“Permanently Lonely”
Don’t be concerned it’s time I learned
That those who play with fire get burned
But I’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
Don’t be too quick to pity me
Don’t salve my heart with sympathy
Cause I’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
The world looks on with wonder
And pity at your kind
Cause it knows that the future
Is not very pretty for your kind for your kind
Will always be runnin’ and wonderin’
What’s happened to hearts that you’ve broken
And left all alone
But we’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
Runnin’ lonely
That those who play with fire get burned
But I’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
Don’t be too quick to pity me
Don’t salve my heart with sympathy
Cause I’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
The world looks on with wonder
And pity at your kind
Cause it knows that the future
Is not very pretty for your kind for your kind
Will always be runnin’ and wonderin’
What’s happened to hearts that you’ve broken
And left all alone
But we’ll be alright in a little while
But you’ll be permanently lonely
Runnin’ lonely
