It's The Only One You've Got

How do you know where you're going 
When you don't know where you've been 
You hide the shame that you're not showing 
And you won't let anyone in 
crowded street can be a quiet place 
When you're walking alone 
And now you think that you're the only 
One who doesn't 

Have to try 
And you won't have to feel 
If you're afraid to fight 
Then i guess you never will 
You hide behind your walls 
Of maybe nevers 
Forgetting that there's something more 
Than just knowing better 
Your mistakes do not define you now 
They tell you who you're not 
You've got to live this life you're given 
Like it's the only one you've got 

Memories have left you broken 
And the scars have never healed 
The emptiness in you is growing 
But so little left to fill 
You're scared to look back on the days before 
You're too tired to move on 
And now you think that you're the only one who doesn't 

Have to try 
And you won't have to feel 
If you're afraid to fight 
Then i guess you never will 
You hide behind your walls 
Of maybe nevers 
Forgetting that there's something more 
Than just knowing better 
Your mistakes do not define you now 
They tell you who you're not 
You've got to live this life you're given 
Like it's the only one you've got 

What would it take 
To get you to say that i'll try 
And what would you say if 
This was the last day of your life 

You hide behind your walls 
Of maybe nevers 
Forgetting that there's something more 
Than just knowing better 
Your mistakes do not define you now 
They tell you who you're not 
You've got to live this life you're given 
Like it's the only one you've got 

You hide behind your walls 
Of maybe nevers 
Forgetting that there's something more 
Than just knowing better 
Your mistakes do not define you now 
They tell you who you're not 
You've got to live this life you're given 
Like it's the only one you've got
