EVANESCENCE

- The Only One Lyrics

You know you're not the only one

When they all come crashing down, mid-flight
You know you're not the only one
When they're so alone they find a back door out of life
You know you're not the only one

We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding

All our lives, we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies, I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me

So afraid to open your eyes, hypnotized
You know you're not the only one
Never understood this life and you're right, I don't deserve
But you know I'm not the only one

We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding

All our lives, we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies, I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me

Don't look down, don't look into the eyes
Of the world beneath you
Don't look down, you'll fall down
You'll become their sacrifice

Right or wrong, can't hold on
To the fear that I'm lost without you
If I can't feel, I'm not mine
I'm not real

All our lives, we've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies, I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me

What is the meaning behind The Only One lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Evanescence's 'The Only One' is a musical piece that explores the whole of human experience through its main themes of loneliness, sorrow, and seeking help. It vividly shows the emotion of longing for someone who could guide and light up the way, and at the same time, it conveys the feeling of not being good enough and the battlefield of finding one's real self in the midst of fear and uncertainty. Most of the lyrics to the only one talk about the same feelings as despair, heartbreak, angst, reflection, and solitude. However, the song still highlights the struggles and the need for guidance, self-doubt, and identity. The lyrics include the topics of sorrow, death, and deep questioning of existence that might not be appropriate for kids under 13. The emotional strength and the allusions to being lost and wounded imply a certain degree of maturity that necessitates parental supervision.

Yeah, the afternoon they recorded it Amy had some tuna for lunch and they put the intro in and call it Tuna Afternoon because they didn't know what else to call it. But then they changed it.

That one line 'Heaven shine a light down on me' she sings so beautifully that I just stop whatever I'm doing and listen.

Heard it a few times, but now I'm reading this, I fall apart in tears, fearing the hate, loving the emptiness. I just love this song, as well as pretty much all of Amy's songs. Wish I was like her.

It reminds me of how ppl are tearing down trees in the rainforests and destroying habitats just for their stupid money and oil

There is sound before the song and its because this song is about people being sad in the world. So I think the sound if random things in the world.
