Ethan Johns - To Be The One lyrics

[Produced By Ethan Johns] Well the pills I got, they ask me, "Let's go out for a while" And the knives up in the kitchen are all too dull to smile Yeah, and the sun, it tries to warn me "Boy, those wings are made of wax" While the things I do to k** me They just tell me to relax But, oh, Cinderella All dressed up in all your boots and all your charms I'm not the fellow To protect you or to keep you from all your harm And I don't know which is worse To wake up and see the sun Or to be the one, be the one Be the one that's gone And the empty bottle, it misses you Yeah, and I'm the one that it's talking to And with you and I just barely strangers I'm pretty much just left the fool Damn, don't the streets look empty, though? Just wandering 'round here without you Oh, the empty bottle, it misses you, and I'm the one it's talking to And I don't know which is worse To wake up and see the sun Or to be the one, be the one that's gone
