The One Thing I Know

People I find who go on and on and on forever Just wasting my time they turn sunny days into bad weather Those hurricane minds whipping up a storm cuz they got nothing better A small life lived scared ain't strong It's hard to plan when everything you see is a slight of hand And that neon quick sand lighting up the boulevards at every chance To make you forget you're just a pawn in a chess game played by the man Where every good right seems wrong The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know You've gotta run it right back, looking for the clues of the first attack When your innocence crashed, forgetting every question you wanted to ask Gotta take off the mask, dive into those places that hurt so bad To build yourself up brand new To start over again, you gonna have to work hard to make friends With the kid who built a life on pretend you tried to forget about since you were ten You won't break but you'll bend around the corner into new light scattering The choice is always up to you The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know If you never let anyone in, you're never gonna let the light out If you never try a little bit of sin you're never gonna find yourself So you'd better find a way to love the rocks inside that can turn to gold That's only way you're gonna love growing old The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know The one thing, the one thing I know
