It's The Only One You've Got

3 Doors Down

1. How do you know where you're going
   When you don't know where you've been
   You hide the shame that you're not showing
   And you won't let anyone in
   A crowded street can be a quiet place
   When you're walking alone
   And now you think that you're the only
   One who doesn't

R1: Have to try
    And you won't have to feel
    If you're afraid to fight
    Then I guess you never will
    You hide behind your walls
    Of maybe nevers
    Forgetting that there's something more
    Than just knowing better
    Your mistakes do not define you now
    They tell you who you're not
    You've got to live this life you're given
    Like it's the only one you've got

2. Memories have left you broken
   And the scars have never healed
   The emptiness in you is growing
   But so little left to fill
   You're scared to look back on the days before
   You're too tired to move on
   And now you think that you're the only
   one who doesn't

R1: Have to try
    And you won't have to feel
    If you're afraid to fight
    Then I guess you never will
    You hide behind your walls
    Of maybe nevers
    Forgetting that there's something more
    Than just knowing better
    Your mistakes do not define you now
    They tell you who you're not
    You've got to live this life you're given
    Like it's the only one you've got 

*: What would it take
   To get you to say that I'll try 
   And what would you say if
   This was the last day of your life
   
R2: You hide behind your walls
    Of maybe nevers
    Forgetting that there's something more
    Than just knowing better
    Your mistakes do not define you now
    They tell you who you're not
    You've got to live this life you're given
    Like it's the only one you've got
