One For 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.
If I hadn't grown with you
And if half my life had been spent
When we came together
Would it be different
Are you any more like you
Though I know that I've asked before
I'm sure there're quite a few like me
Why should I be different
Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told
So hard to tell truth from lies
With young eyes of innocence
The glass slipper, the prince's kiss
They make no difference
I thought I knew what I knew
I thought that I knew what they meant
So, so soon too late I realize
A meaning so different
Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told
The highway ends at the iron fence
Where the diesel trucks march by
The sounds of living can make no sense
When they make no difference
Wooden boxes cause a throne
The hollow faces beneath the stone
And all the blank ones on their way home
I see no difference
Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told
