Lyrics for One as interpreted by spitfirek7

One Lyrics
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you
Now you got someone to blame

You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
It's one love
We get to share it
It leaves you baby
If you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it's too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We're one
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come tor raise the dead
Havew you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
We hurt each other
Then we do it again

You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should

One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers

One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other

One

One.

two people who love each other, but they hurt each other, over and over again. it kind of reminds me of my situation right now so it means a lot to me. especially when it says "you ask me to enter but then you make me crawl.......when all you got is hurt". people say love is great, love is wonderful. but when they get it, they don't treat it the way they should. it sucks, really.

I can't say if it's true,but someone told me it was a song a gay son sings to his father. It surely works on that level if you read the lyrics with that theme in mind."Did I disappoint you..leave a bad taste in your mouth. You act like you never had love and you want me to do without...we're one but we're not the same" etc.

it's actually not about love
it's about a brotherhood of men, and stuff like that, i heard them say that in an interview

reminds me of my 1st love - she loved me, i loved her, but we couldn't be together as she didn't want to get too serious too young....I sat in my room listening to this over and over, trying to lose the pain...still there though.

Turtonhot, funny you mention that these lyrics remind you about love. They sort of remind me of stupid people posting lame messages that make no sense at all. The way I picture it, is the girl realized that you are a goon and posted messages like the previous on websites.

angelgarbage, when looking a tthe big picture I have come to the conclusion that you are entirely wrong. First off, to post a message discussing how a song reminds you love the person must be a tool, hence Turtonhot. Second off, I would rather there be less people like this in the world than listen to their whining and moaning. However, I don't wish for anyone to commit suicide, however I do hate you Angelgarbage and Turtonhot.

how can you hate me so much if you don't know me? i really could care less if you want me to die or whatever. i just really don't understand your state of mind. would you be this obnoxious to me if you met me in real life? or is it just a thing you do online because you'll never have to deal with it again or see the person?

Johnny Cash's cover is great, but awfully depressing. If you buy the whole brotherhood of man thing, which I do (I mean, as the meaning of the song), then the feeling I get from hearing Cash sing the song is that something is desperately wrong with the world if this old man is lauding something so basic and yet unachieved.

Turtonhot, I would like to do something about it, hence why I continue posting these messages. I am glad your ex girlfriend broke up with you, guys like you don't deserve to have any female companionship. As for you Angelgarbage, I don't really find your comments funny at all. They lack the important ingedient called humor. Take notes from Turtonhot, he called me a 'pig riding piece of imbred shit'. He is obviously the coolest kid in Middle School.

Turtonhot, I honestly believe in my heart that no one really gives a fuck if your girlfriend dumped you ass. If you want to post things like that, go to singles chat rooms and try to score some cyber-sex there. I mean seriously, what kind of guy does would post something like that here? Oh wait, I know who would...you. Instead of pouring your broken heart out here, why don't you go to your school nurse or guidence counselor and bitch. Angelgarbage, you are a waste of space, stop wasting your time on here and go find some guy to fuck you so you aren't so bitchy all the time.
