"The Only Thing" lyrics
"The Only Thing"
All of us we're always trying to catch up
Call just to let me know what you think
How is this never quite enough
Lost and always trying to get back, can we get back?
Oh, call the doctor and the doctor came in
She said, "Where does it hurt? You know there's a pill for most everything"
Close your eyes, open wide, and we'll make you smile again
Some people believe in ghosts and some believe in aliens
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Oh, don't you feel like you're trying to catch up
Fear makes you jump a little too quick
Time, do we know when it's too late
Always trying to get it back, trying to get it back
But remember all the things that used to be real
Things to help you believe 'cause you wanna make sense of everything
Then there's the first time you crack and you think, "Everyone's laughing at me"
All at once, you're a ghost, you're some kind of alien
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
I just want to feel it
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Find some kinda love to open you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
It's the only thing

Guster - "Fa Fa" When you look in the mirror
Wish you were somebody else
Just a perfect reflection
You and no one else
Minutes run into hours
Hours run into days
You're still waiting for someone
Who never ever came...
Temple Of The Dog - "Hunger Strike" I don't mind stealing bread
From the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless
When my cup's already overfilled
Yeah
But it's on the table
The fire's cooking
And they're farming babies...
John Mayer - "Why Georgia" I am driving up 85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
Just stuck inside the gloom
4 more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind
Cause I...
Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Hard To Concentrate" Hustle, bustle and so much muscle, oh
Cells about to separate
And I find it hard to concentrate and
Temporary this cash and carry
I'm stepping up to indicate
The time has come to deviate and
All I...
Sister Hazel - "Change Your Mind" Hey, Hey
Did you ever think
There might be another way
To just feel better,
Just feel better about today
Oh no-
If you never want to have
To turn and go away
You might feel better,
Might feel better...
