Early in the morning
Your eyes meet the sun
Work so hard to feed your wife
And time is so alone
The madness in the evening
With diamonds in your hand
Came home an hour early
Caught her with another man

It's always something before the late night
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you
Can't hold their hands back, can't make the sun rise
It's always something, you know it's always something

On your way back home again
Good to smear it in
You see a man stuck in the range, stranded with no friends
From the goodness of your heart, you saved him from the flood
A couple miles down the road, he's covered in his blood

It's always something before the late night
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you
Can't hold their hands back, can't make the sun rise
It's always something, you know it's always something

Moving around, to never see it coming
Burnt by the light, she thought that she would run you
Blinded again, floating like a feather
Why can't you see you can't control the weather?

Sometimes I caught myself looking in the mirror
With my eyeballs out and I'm looking at the fear
In the bottom of the chains, saw them growing like a plant
But it never works out the way I wrote it in my hand

I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried (it's always something)
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried (it's always something)

It's always something before the late night
Around the corner, there's always something waiting for you
Can't hold their hands back, can't make the sun rise
It's always something, you know it's always something
You know it's always something, you know it's always something
