lyrics

I don't want to be the only one.
If I start it by my self what am I gonna do when I'm done?
And what if I was the first one to see?
Then I would have to explain it to everybody.

And what shall I do if I fail?
Who would want to follow an unfinished trail?
And what if someone should get through before me?
That would be a credit to my insecurity.
What if I did not finish in time?
Someone may come and ridicule my mind.

I wish that for once in my life I could do something without thinking twice.
The only way I can stop criticizing my self is to find something wrong with some one else.
So maybe if I yell loud enough at you I can barricade around my self so no one else can see through.
If I can't have someone warm by my side I'd think you would find that it would be better to die.

I don't want to be the only one.
I don't want to be the only one.

What if I walked through a land that man has never seen?
Then someone would come out of nowhere and make fun of me.
And if I begin to speak words that have never been said they would show me where to find them in a book that has never been read.

I don't want to be the only one.
What if I start to sing a song that has not already been sung, and everyone around started to laugh at me?
That, in turn, would diminish my respectability.
And if I began to do things that have not already been done their eyes would burn with skepticism as they lashed me with their tongues.

I don't want to be the only one.
I don't want to be the only one.
