The Only One

• Written by: Amy Lee, Terry Balsamo

• 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.

REFRAIN #1
We’re all grieving,
• Lost and bleeding.

REFRAIN #2
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
You know I’m not the only one.

REFRAIN #1
We’re all grieving,
• Lost and bleeding.

REFRAIN #2
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.

REFRAIN #2
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.
