LYRICS: One by One
(Words & Music by John Pointer and Johnny Goudie)
Your voice is like a pillow
A little torn at the seams
And it whispers all the secrets I think that my heart's been trying to keep from me
And somewhere in that secret
Is a little bit of you
That tells me where to find it
Won't tell me what to do
And all that I know
All that I know is
One by One
We Fall
All for One
And All
One by One
We Fall
All for One
And All
Because I found it once
Then I fell so Hard
I fired off my heart with some kind of blatant disregard
Now that part of me is missing
And I think it's missing you
So what can I do
Oh what can I do
If One by One
We Fall
All for One
And All
One by One
We Fall
All for One
And...
All the ground rushes up
It's all you can see
Baby try to fly to me
Your voice is like a pillow
Your body makes my bed
Your secrets tangled recklessly in every word that you've said
Now you say that you're afraid to fly
Well baby aren't we all?
Doesn't everyone hit bottom?
Doesn't everybody crawl?
Now all that I know
All that I know is
One by One
We Fall
All for One
And All
One by One
We Fall
All for One
And All
One by One yeah
One by One
One by One.
LYRICS: Disconnected
Verse:
Snowflakes falling, darkness crawling
future calling out your name
Winter weather, falling feather
Hold together through the pain
Pre Chorus:
And we're all the same, When the changes reign
We all scream
Chorus:
I'm not the only one
Disconnected; come undone
no I'm not the only one
This affected
Please tell me I'm not the only one
Disconnected; come undone
I feel like I am the only one
This affected
Verse:
In the mirror roles are clearer
Leaning nearer to the view
Frost is forming, without warning
Life comes storming up on you
(pre chorus/chorus.)
Bridge:
(No you're not alone)
In these tears that cleanse like rain
(alone)
No
(Not alone)
In these tears that cleanse like rain
(Not alone)
No
Verse:
Undercover, over lover
Once another, now the same
The magnetic energetic,
Don't forget it at close range
And we're all the same
(chorus.)
Coda:
Come down with me, and you will see
In this storm your chance to change.
LYRICS: Bliss
When you come to me
Its like I don't know what to do
Shuffle my shoes, hands in my pockets
I'm so confused
It hurts to say what could become of this
You are my bliss
What I insist
Is you are my bliss
Chorus: Come to me oh
Come to me or
Just leave my mind
please Leave my mind
Come to me oh
Come to me or
I Lose my mind
I lose my mind
I need to get over it
Why do you still make my dreams
You are my past and its long over
Or so it seems
Nothing but the best I reminisce
You are my bliss
You only exist
Within my bliss
(Chorus.)
I live my
life with no regrets I carry on
From day to
day as if there's nothing wrong
But you're still
fire in my desire
I can't live like this
and I must resist
No one else has ever compared to you
in all these years
When I'm alone it doesn't matter
till you appear
I still hold on to what we could have had
I find it sad
That you're my bliss
And I resist
That You're my bliss
(Chorus.)
LYRICS: The Flame.
Father forgive me of my sins; you don't know the state I'm in
Mother forgive the mess I've made; I don't know just what to say
to you
I don't know just what to say
But if you listen to me
I think that you'll see every word I say is true
I've sunken so deep that I need you
Like a candle needs a flame to see
Sweet sister save me from myself
Help me become somebody else
And as I learn from my mistakes
Don't you know tat my heart breaks for you?
Don't you know that my heart breaks?
So listen to me
And I think that you'll see every word I say is true
I've sunken so deep that I need you
Like a candle needs a flame to see
So now I see the scars I hid
I see the reasons for the thoughtless things I did
Down in the darkness I decide
Forgiveness must come from someplace deep inside you
Forgiveness comes from deep inside
So please listen to me
And I think that you'll see every word I say is true
I'd sunken so deep
But now I'll feed you, like a candle feeds a flame
And I'll see you, like a candle sees a flame
And I will free you
like the candle frees
the flame.
