Like Roses - Like Me - The Only One!

Roses
Please don't make me answer you
The world is big but my circles are small
And please don't try to shut me out
I'm in love that's all
I'm not afraid to listen, if you're not afraid to hear
And please don't laugh I just can't help,
Grinning when I'm giving it all
And please don't show you're face around my place
I've seen it all before
And I'm not afraid of dying, but sometimes I refrain,
I believe that life goes on like a hurricane
And you struggle through the pieces till you're not so sane
Anymore
And so you want and you suffer till you've had enough
and in the end there’s a heaven in the cold clear bluff,
only want
(chorus)
To come through like roses
To head fast like a clear stream, to feel soft like a freight
train,
In the middle of a bad dream
All you wanted was to be proud,
Like a rough little
Soldier,
There’s a place where the soul ends
Comes through like roses,
Comes through like roses
Looking down I see my cigarette is even,
With the horizon that my feet have made in the blanket,
Looking back I lost the fight it was uneven,
You never gave me time enough to say I was wrong
Or I was sorry,
I can see your head's still spinning like a merry-go-round
And you're glaring at the people like you've been shut down
Quarter time,
It's a war gonna win no matter what it takes,
And you can feel every second of the cold heartache
Coming down
(chorus)
(solo)
(chorus)

Like Me
She's leaning on the
mailbox
In someone else’s driveway
And she laughs to herself cause she knows
That she's still here
She won't wait forever
God knows that she wants to
And you know that if it comes down
It's gonna be war
This ain't how we're supposed to be
And nothing changes between you and me, at all
(chorus)
Ain't it just like a loser
Ain't it just like this chip on my sleeve
Ain't it like me
It's raining down in Longwood
She heard it on the radio
And she laughs to herself cause she knows
That she's not there
Well some say I'm crazy
Some say I take this shit too hard,
But you know and I know it's gonna be war
She ain't how she's supposed to be
Nothing changes between her and me, at all
(chorus)
I know the distance between us is greater and stronger
Stronger than I plan to be
Ain't it like me
The Only
One!
I don’t know what we're
fighting about
When every one can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to be the only one!
I only wanted to be the only one!
A chance to be forgiven
A chance to be forsaken
Did I ever by chance cross your mind?
I only wanted a chance to see you shine!
I only wanted a chance to see you shine!
I don’t have no worries, no and I don’t need no answers
And there's just enough to make it day by day
Just enough to make you fade away!
I don’t know what we're fighting about
Everyone can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to be the only one!
I only wanted to be the only one!
I don’t need forgiveness and I wont be forsaken
And I'm only here to take back what is mine
I cant believe the dullness of your shine!!!
Just enough has been taken away
To make me believe in it all and I pray
And I've only been on at the start to begin
Just enough that there seems to be no end
I only wanted to see your face again!
I only wanted to touch your face again!
I don’t know what we're fighting about
Every one can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to be the only one!!!
I only wanted to be the only 1!!!
