It's the Only One You've Got

And how do you know where you're goin' When you don't know where you've been? You hide the shame that you're not showin' And you won't let anyone in A crowded street can be a quiet place When you're walkin' alone 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 You hide behind your walls of maybe nevers Forgetting that there's somethin' 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 The memories have left you broken And the scars have never healed The emptiness in you is growin' With so little left to feel 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 have to try And you won't have to fail You're so afraid to fly And I guess you never will You hide behind your walls of maybe nevers Forgetting that there's somethin' 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 Ooh, but what would it take Oh, to get you to say that I'll try? And what would you say if this Was the last day of your life? You hide behind your walls of maybe nevers Forgetting that there's somethin' 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 You hide behind your walls of maybe nevers Forgetting that there's somethin' 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
