The Only One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(All the tuna fish are singing in a Tuna Afternoon)
You know you're not the only one
When they all come crashing down, midflight
You know you're not the only one
When they're so alone they find a back door out of life
You know you're not the only one
We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding
All our lives we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
So afraid to open your eyes, hypnotized
You know you're not the only one
Never understood this life
And you're right I don't deserve
But you know I'm not the only one
We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding
All our lives we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
Don't look down, don't look into the eyes of the world beneath you
Don't look down, you'll fall down, you'll become their sacrifice
Right or wrong, can't hold onto the fear that I'm lost without you
If I can't feel, I'm not mine, I'm not real
All our lives we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
