Ain't it just like a loser
Ain't it just like this chip on my sleeve
Ain't it like me

I know the distance between us is greater and stronger
Stronger than I plan to be
Ain't it like me
Like Roses

Please don't make me answer you
The world is big but my circles are small
And please don't try to shut me out
I'm in love that's all

I'm not afraid to listen, if you're not afraid to hear

And please don't laugh I just can't help,
Grinning when I'm giving it all
And please don't show you're face around my place
I've seen it all before

And I'm not afraid of dying, but sometimes I refrain,

I believe that life goes on like a hurricane
And you struggle through the pieces till you're not so sane
Anymore
And so you want and you suffer till you've had enough
And in the end there's a heaven in the cold clear bluff, only want

To come through like roses
To head fast like a clear stream, to feel soft like a freight train,
In the middle of a bad dream
All you wanted was to be proud,
Like a rough little
Soldier,
There's a place where the soul ends
Comes through like roses,
Comes through like roses
Looking down I see my cigarette is even,
With the horizon that my feet have made in the blanket,
Looking back I lost the fight it was uneven,
You never gave me time enough to say I was wrong
Or I was sorry,

I can see your head's still spinning like a merry-go-round
And you're glaring at the people like you've been shut down
Quarter time,
It's a war gonna win no matter what it takes,
And you can feel every second of the cold heartache
Coming down
To come through like roses
To head fast like a clear stream, to feel soft like a freight train,
In the middle of a bad dream
All you wanted was to be proud,
Like a rough little
Soldier,
There's a place where the soul ends
Comes through like roses,
Comes through like roses
To come through like roses
To head fast like a clear stream, to feel soft like a freight train,
In the middle of a bad dream
All you wanted was to be proud,
Like a rough little
Soldier,
There's a place where the soul ends
Comes through like roses,
Comes through like roses
The Only One

I don't know what we're fighting about
When everyone can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to be the only one

A chance to be forgiven
A chance to be forsaken
Did I ever by chance cross your mind?
I only wanted a chance to see you shine
I only wanted a chance to see you shine

I don't have no worries
No and I don't need no answers
There's just enough to make it day by day
There's just enough to make you fade away

I don't know what we're fighting about
Everyone can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to be the only one
I only wanted to be the only one

I don't need forgiveness
I can't be forsaken
I'm only here to take back what is mine
I cant believe the dullness of your shine

Just enough has been taken away
To make me believe in it all and I pray
And I've only been on at the start to begin
Just enough that there seems to be no end
I only wanted to touch your face again
I only wanted to see your face again

I don't know what we're fighting about
Everyone can see that I'm not crazy
I only wanted to see the only one
I only wanted to be the only one
Heavy (also performed as Matchbox Twenty)


It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you were jokin'
And I'm broken
You've known for a little while
You pass it on and try something else
And hell, you know that you're the on
e
You turned on me
That's the way you heard it was supposed to be
And right away you start thinkin' about
The wrong things will start giving up
Well hell, you know that we're all quitters
Big sinners
So, tell me 'cause I don't understand
Just how to be more to the right
Ya know, ya know that means so much

You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin
Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
So go

You could sell me about anything
And I'll buy because I like your face
And hell you know that I'm a sucker
Little f**ker
But tell me it's only me

And I'll tell you it's only you
'Cause only you can make me weep
You turned on me
Yeah, 'cause I'm so sick and thin

Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?
When things were heavy

It's bad enough that we had to learn
The hard way about giving in
When I thought that you jokin'
