Lyrics

I'm The One
Music/Lyrics by Dodd Michael Lede

I might have broke a thousand hearts
But yours was always safe inside
Never felt an ounce of shame
Until the day I made you cry
Now this emptiness inside of me
Is just too big to hide
Now I’ll stand here on the outside
Cause I don’t think I fit in
Shackled to a history
Chock-full of discontent
Build a home from all these ashes
Until the wind picks up again

It’s such a tragedy
An everyday catastrophe
You think you know me better than I know myself
And my insanity’s the only thing that’s left in me
I think you might be safer finding someone else
I think my apathy’s the only thing that’s keeping me here
Bound to all this shame

It’s always the same
Different places & names
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy
Hatred, so hard to escape it
The hell we create
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy

Why I got to be the one
Why am I the one

Now rewind this twenty years
To find a new path I can take
That wouldn’t lead me here
In the state I am today
And if you never met me
Would you still be the same?

It’s such a tragedy
An everyday catastrophe
You think you know me better than I know myself
And my insanity’s the only thing that’s left in me
I think you might be safer finding someone else
I think my apathy’s the only thing that’s keeping me here
Bound to all this shame

It’s always the same
Different places & names
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy
Hatred, so hard to escape it
The hell we create
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy

Why I got to be the one
Why am I the one

Shame, it’s always the same
Different places & names
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy
Hatred, so hard to escape it
The hell we create
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy

Shame, it’s always the same
Different places & names
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy
Hatred, so hard to escape it
The hell we create
And I’m the one that you blame
For all this tragedy

Why I got to be the one
Why am I the one
Why I got to be the one
Why am I the one
