It's The Only One You've Got Lyrics - 3 Doors Down - 3 Doors Down

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 

A 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 fail 

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 you've got 

Memories have left you broken and the scars have never healed 

The emptiness in you is growing with so little left to feel 

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 fail 

If you're afraid to fly 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 you've got 

Oh, what will it take, oh 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 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 you've got
