I Am Not the One
You're looking for someone to be yours
You'll hold on until their last breath
To them, they belong to a higher source
The conqueror of life and death
Naïve and believing everything
As long as it's coming from you, but
I am not the one
I am not the one
You'll sell them the notion that they can be saved
Cause who'd want to live down below?
A saviour, an idol, they're willing to pay
To bathe in your heavenly glow
Afraid of what's out there, in need of a hand
Yes, that's who you'd really like to find, but
I am not the one
I am not the one
If I am the sinner and you the saint
Then maybe I don't want to change
Cause I've tried to live with guilt and restraint
And all that it brought me was pain
Maybe that life is for someone else
But after all these years, I've found that
I am not the one
I am not the one
And one day, when all of your lights go out
And all of your crowds have gone home
I'll be there to watch as your walls come down
And you're left standing there all alone
They'll wake up and see you for who you are
They'll realise you fucked with their minds
I hope you never find the one
And if you do, I hope they run
They run
They run, they run, they run
Oh, I hope that you go to your grave
Without finding the one
Oh, I hope they run
I am not the one
I hope you never find the one
And if you do, I hope they run
You'll hold on until their last breath
To them, they belong to a higher source
The conqueror of life and death
Naïve and believing everything
As long as it's coming from you, but
I am not the one
I am not the one
You'll sell them the notion that they can be saved
Cause who'd want to live down below?
A saviour, an idol, they're willing to pay
To bathe in your heavenly glow
Afraid of what's out there, in need of a hand
Yes, that's who you'd really like to find, but
I am not the one
I am not the one
If I am the sinner and you the saint
Then maybe I don't want to change
Cause I've tried to live with guilt and restraint
And all that it brought me was pain
Maybe that life is for someone else
But after all these years, I've found that
I am not the one
I am not the one
And one day, when all of your lights go out
And all of your crowds have gone home
I'll be there to watch as your walls come down
And you're left standing there all alone
They'll wake up and see you for who you are
They'll realise you fucked with their minds
I hope you never find the one
And if you do, I hope they run
They run
They run, they run, they run
Oh, I hope that you go to your grave
Without finding the one
Oh, I hope they run
I am not the one
I hope you never find the one
And if you do, I hope they run
