Machine Gun Kelly Lonely

Machine Gun Kelly came through with a brand new project on Friday and as many people expected, it is a Pop Punk revival that has many fans excited for his new direction. Tickets To My Downfall is full of power chords, melodies, and fast drumming, which is what you would expect from this genre. Despite this, MGK did drop some ballads on the project, including “Lonely” which is an emotional track about the death of his father and aunt.

With this song, MGK can be heard reminiscing about the past when he used to live with his aunt. As an unruly child, his aunt remained his biggest fan and was a massive influence on him. He also has stories about his father and how he wishes they had more time. It’s a sobering track that speaks to the heaviness of loss at all stages of life.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got in trouble
The first time my dad saw me
Dance with the devil
How are we so opposite?
I lived with your sister
My first home since Mom had left
And I wrote my first song with him in the basement

[Pre-Chorus]
And then he said goodbye way too soon
And this don’t feel right without you

[Chorus]
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’d trade it, trade it, I would trade it all for you
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’m lonely, lonely, lonely without you

[Verse 2]
I got in trouble
The first time the cops saw me
Dance with the devil
I ended up in handcuffs and then
You called your sister
She cried when she picked me up
Goddamn, how I miss her
‘Cause she didn’t give a fuck

[Pre-Chorus]
And then she said goodbye way too soon
And this don’t feel right without you

[Chorus]
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’d trade it, trade it, I would trade it all for you
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’m lonely, lonely, lonely without you

[Verse 3]
The last time I saw you (Fuck)
I cried, I wish you had more time left
The last time I heard you
They held the phone, you took your last breath
The last time I saw you
I cried, I wish you had more time left
The last time I heard you
They held the phone, you took your last breath

[Chorus]
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’d trade it, trade it, I would trade it all for you
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’d trade it, trade it, I’d trade it all for you
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I’d trade it, trade it, I’d trade it all for you
Lonely, lonely, even when the room is full
I hate this, I’m jaded, and I’d trade it all for you

[Outro]
Boy, it was just a dangerous birth
His umbilical cord was stuck around his neck
And so I ended up, uh, undoing the umbilical cord, and, uh
Well, he was bigger than the normal child
I don’t know what it was but he had a, uh
He had a heart problem and they didn’t think he would live
