Only One

Dawn Krakowski
I'm sick of being on the edge,
I'm sick of feeling so put down,
I don't feel alive anymore,
I'm sitting where I can't be found.

I want to be saved,
I want to be held,
I want it all to be okay,
But I need someone to show me the way.

I've been lied to and played,
I've been used and I've been slayed,
I've been sick and afraid,
All I've done is fade.

I want to come back,
I want to go home,
I don't want to be here,
Crying all alone.

But I can't be saved,
I can't be won,
Because I know who can save me,
There's only one.

But right now she's lost,
She's pent up trying to find
The best way to make it
She's lost her mind.

I'm sorry to say it,
I wish it were a lie
But I'm the only one who can save me,
There are so many reasons why.

Can you help me find her though?
Help me dig through the rubble and debris.
You can show me where she lies,
We can make her breath again.
