lyrics

I'm afraid of dying and I'm scared of living alone. Growing old without you. I get so cold. Don't want to talk about it. Please let me be the one.

I try so hard. I don't know why I'm quick to anger but I'm slow to cry. You know I don't mind, please let me be the one.

A righteous man might kneel and make a deal with God. I don't believe in God. An broken man might hide from the life that's left. I'm not there yet.

We've been all over. Now I'm never far from home. The things we did together I can't do them on my own. I know you hate to be alone but please let me be the one.

A righteous man might kneel and make a deal with God. I don't believe in God. An angry man might lash out any way he can. I've been that man. I'm still that man.

The days are short. The clock won't wait. I wasted time and now the hour's late. Don't want to talk about it. Please let me be the one.
