lyrics

Not The Only One Here - Lyrics

I´m walking down the pavement
I realise that I´m just a person in the crowd
Nobody would even care if I shout out
Feels like I have no voice
Every man for himself
My power and my confidence tumble down my face
I nearly drown in the waves
Cause something pulls me down
And tries to suck away all I´ve gained
Without trying different thoughts
I can´t defend what I´ve got
It tries to show me that I am worthless

And I
Better now that I´m someone
Cause I am
Not the only one here

You push me
Touch me
Want me to see
That I am a nobody
But I don´t trust you
Honestly, I try to not believe a word you say
I want to be awake, reset myself
Cause I don ́t want a thought
That pulls me down
That kicks me around
I am suspended from life
I don ́t do what I like
Stop let me rearrange
It´s not easy to push yourself
I fear that everything I do is not much more than just a short erection

And I
Better now that I´m someone
Cause I am
Not the only one here

I stand here, not beside me
I activate myself
And I´m excited to surprise me
I stand here, not beside me
I activate myself
And I´m excited to surprise

And I
Better now that I´m someone
Cause I am
Not the only one here
