Manchester Orchestra Lyrics

1. The Only One

I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy 
and I don't know what to do.
And I am the only son of a pastor I know 
who does the things I do.
But if it was you 
I don't think that it would matter.
Oh and if it was true 
then I just wouldn't matter 

I was amazed at the color and shapes you do,
a paper part for two.
I am the only son of a bastard I know 
that knows the bastard, too. 
Because it was you,
I called it a different story.
But if I was you,
I'd make this a simpler story.

I bet you did what you did 
when you did it 
to do it again 
by the time you were done with it. 
I bet you did what you did 
when you did 
just to tell every friend that you have 
that the Lord did it.

I finally knew that I simply couldn't matter.
You finally knew that you simply couldn't matter.
I guess that it's true you never knew 
the passive power of the truth 
would cut me loose. 
If I could write another phrase 
we might be better off this way,
but there's no use.
