It's The Only One You've Got - 3 Doors Down

Share on

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 have to try
And you won't have to fail
If you're afraid to fly
Then I guess you never will

You hide behind your walls of maybe it never hurts
Forgetting that there's something more
Then 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

Memories have left you broken
And the scars have never healed
The emptiness in you is growing
With so little left to feel
You're scared to look back on the days before
Is sad to move on

And now you think that you're the only one
Who doesn't have to try
And you won't have to fail
You're so afraid to fly
Then I guess you never will

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?
