The Only One
Is there such a thing as senility,
Is it an old mind is it there all the time?
Is there such a thing as the human race,
Brothers and sisters.
People say I live in a fantasy world,
I just do what I do.
I don't like to be told
Others stop and say my whole life is a dream,
But you don't understand.
So that's why...
You look at me and tell me what do you see?
Why don't you let me be cause I'm not the only one.
Look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you set me free...
Well the cold hard facts of make believe.
I'm down on my knees and I'm begging please.
I reach this place and I'm off my face,
But no-one can tell me.
I know that I have to come back home,
Cause sometimes I don't like being alone
Every now and then I need someone else,
I get tired of myself,
So tired.
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you let me be
Cause I'm not the only one.
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
You gota set me free
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you let me be.
I'm not the only one.
You look at me tell me what do you see,
Why don't you set me free?
Gota break free...!
You know what makes me sick?
I see the nameless faces in empty places,
With the colourless skies above
Feeling hungry and cold why wasn't I told about all push and no shove?
Don't tell what you want me to be,
I'm not the only one
I don't care what you see in me,
I'm not the only one
So don't tell me what you want me to be
I'm not the only one.
Is it an old mind is it there all the time?
Is there such a thing as the human race,
Brothers and sisters.
People say I live in a fantasy world,
I just do what I do.
I don't like to be told
Others stop and say my whole life is a dream,
But you don't understand.
So that's why...
You look at me and tell me what do you see?
Why don't you let me be cause I'm not the only one.
Look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you set me free...
Well the cold hard facts of make believe.
I'm down on my knees and I'm begging please.
I reach this place and I'm off my face,
But no-one can tell me.
I know that I have to come back home,
Cause sometimes I don't like being alone
Every now and then I need someone else,
I get tired of myself,
So tired.
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you let me be
Cause I'm not the only one.
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
You gota set me free
You look at me and tell me what do you see,
Why don't you let me be.
I'm not the only one.
You look at me tell me what do you see,
Why don't you set me free?
Gota break free...!
You know what makes me sick?
I see the nameless faces in empty places,
With the colourless skies above
Feeling hungry and cold why wasn't I told about all push and no shove?
Don't tell what you want me to be,
I'm not the only one
I don't care what you see in me,
I'm not the only one
So don't tell me what you want me to be
I'm not the only one.
