“Only” by NF

 

I, can’t be, the only, one, who’s lonely, tonight,
I, can’t be, the only,

Yeah,
Does anybody feel like me?
Show of hands,
I don’t need a lot, I just wanna find my peace,
Yeah, why you throwing rocks,
Oh, you wanna kill my dreams?
Okay, tell me everything I’m not,
You think I didn’t know those things?
Always been a little lost, and I still might be,

Life’s hard, but it’s okay,
Watching the comments, feels like, I’m at a court date,
How could I complain,
With a house like this, and a car like that, in the driveway?
Half of what I say,
Kinda feels like a dream that, I’m gonna wake from someday,
Wishing that I’d pray,
A little more often, and put more time, into my faith,
Travel in my brain, whoa!
Might find damage and no grace,
Things that I hold on to,
But I won’t say things that I won’t let go,
So I chain my soul to the heartbreak,
Having a nice day, that’s not a average in my case,
Stones like cameras, in my face,
Glamour, it’s all fake,
Love my job,
But it might seem odd that I’m here, ’cause I hate fame,

Yeah, pay my debt to me,
Throwing threats at me,
They can’t tell,
This connecting me, it’s affecting me, hide that well,
They’ll write checks to me, but don’t check on me,
By myself, always questioning, what comes next for me,
I can’t be the only,

 

I, can’t be, the only, one, who’s lonely, tonight,
No I, can’t be, the only,

 

Yeah,
If you made a list of people that you trusted,
Would you put your name down?
Do you know who you are?
When you look at life, and you talk about yours, do you feel proud?
Are you leaving a mark, or scared to make a bad impression,
So you just go hide in the dark,
Living and playing a part, knowing regret’ll come back tomorrow,
That’s what it does, ain’t it?
Don’t know what we’re chasing, but we all do it,
Just a part of life, I guess we’re all foolish,
Running after what we think will make us happy, ’til it falls through,
And then we find out later, it ain’t what we wanted,
So we give up on it, then we pile the garbage,
And we watch it grow, and find a drug and numb it,
‘Til we hit the point that we can barely function,

Am I motivated?
Is my music dated?
Would I be the same, if I was medicated?
Even therapists say, I need medication,
I avoid it, though, because I’m scared to take it,
Am I the only one, that has a loaded gun,
That’s full of doubts and memories to overcome?
And I complain about ’em, when they shoot at me,
But I know truthfully, I like to load ’em up and let ’em,

That’s so sad to see, that’s so sad to see, I need help,
They talk passively, then come after me, by myself,
Lost that half of me,
God, there has to be, someone else,
Don’t feel bad for me, I just can’t believe, that I’m lonely,

 

No I, can’t be, the only, one, who’s lonely, tonight,
No I, can’t be, the only,

There’s gotta be, somebody out there,
There’s gotta be, somebody, somewhere,
That needs company, and it’s, comforting to know, know (know),
There’s gotta be, somebody out there,
There’s gotta be, somebody, somewhere,
That needs company, and it’s, comforting to know,

I, can’t be, the only, one, who’s lonely, tonight,
No I, can’t be, the only,
Can’t be, the only, one, who’s lonely, tonight,
No I, can’t be, the only!
