i cant remember anything
cant tell if this is true or dream
deep down inside i feel to scream
this terrible silence stops me
now that the war is through with me
im waking up i can not see
that there is not much left of me
nothing is real but pain now
hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god,wake me
back in the womb its much too real
in pumps life that i must feel
but cant look forward to reveal
look to the time when ill live
fed through the tube that sticks in me
just like a wartime novelty
tied to machines that make me be
cut this life off from me
hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god,wake me
now the world is gone im just one
oh god,help me hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god help me
darkness imprisoning me
all that i see
absolute horror
i cannot live
i cannot die
trapped in myself
body my holding cell
landmine has taken my sight
taken my speech
taken my hearing
taken my arms
taken my legs
taken my soul
left me with life in hell
is it getting better
or do you feel the same
will it make it easier on you
now you got someone to blame
you say
one love
one life
when it's one need
in the night
it's one love
we get to share it
it leaves you baby
if you don't care for it
did i disappoint you?
or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
you act like you never had love
and you want me to go without
well it's too late
tonight
to drag tha past out
into the light
we're one
but we're not the same
we get to carry each other
carry each other
one
have you come here for forgiveness
have you come tor raise the dead
havew you come here to play jesus
to the lepers in your head
did i ask too much
more than a lot
you gave me nothing
now it's all i got
we're one
but we're not the same
we hurt each other
then we do it again
you say
love is a temple
love a higher law
love is a temple
love the higher law
you ask me to enter
but then you make me crawl
and i can't be holding on
to what you got
when all you got is hurt
one love
one blood
one life
you got to do what you should
one life
with each other
sisters
brothers
one life
but we're not the same
we get to carry each other
carry each other
one
one.
i am the biggest hypocrite
i've been undeniably jealous
i have been loud and pretentious
i have been utterly threatened
i've gotten candy for my self-interest
the sexy treadmill capitalist
heaven forbid i be criticized
heaven forbid i be ignored
i have abused my power forgive me
you mean we actually are all one
one one one one one one one
i've been out of reach and separatist
heaven forbid average (whatever average means)
i have compensated for my days
of powerlessness
i have abused my so-called power forgive me
you mean we actually are all one
one one one one one one one
did you just call her amazing?
surely we both can't be amazing!
and give up my hard earned status
as fabulous freak of nature?
i have abused my power forgive me
you mean we actually are all one
one one one one one one one
always looked good on paper
sounded good in theory
shakira'nin da aynı adı taşıyan bir şarkısı mevcuttu bir zamanlar.
sözlerini de yazmak lazım şimdi inanmayan falan çıkar haklı olarak ne alaka diyerek;
so i find a reason to shave my legs
each single morning
so i count on someone on friday nights
to take me dancing and then
to church on sundays
to plant more dreams
and someday think of kids
or maybe just to save a little money
you're the one i need
the way back home is always long
but if you're close to me i'm holding on
you're the one i need
my real life has just begun
cause there's nothing like your smile made of sun
in the world full of strangers
you're the one i know
so i learned to cook and finally lose
my kitchen phobia
and so i got the arms to cuddle in
when there's a ghost or a muse
that brings insomnia
to buy more thongs
and write more happy songs
it always takes a little help from someone
you're the one i need
you're the one i need
with you my real life has just begun
you're the one i need
you're the one i need
nothing like your smile made of sun
nothing like your love
nothing like your love
nothing like your love
metallica'nın, 1988 tarihli, and justice for all albümünden bir askerin trajedisini anlatan inanılmaz bir şarkıdır.
metallica'nın 4. albümde klip çekmeye karar verdikten sonra, ilk klip çektiği şarkıdır. muhteşem de bir klibi vardır. klibi bir kez izlendikten sonra, şarkı her dinlenişte tüyleri daha çok diken diken etmeye başlar..
günümüzde hemen hemen her metallica konserinde yorumlanmaya devam eden bu şarkı, canlı performanslarda girişinde karanlık sahnede gürültülü silah patlamaları efektleri, helikopter sesleri ile görkemli bir giriş eşliğinde toplamda yaklaşık 10 dakikalık ayinvari bir havada performe ediliyor.
benim zevkime göre, muhteşem bir beste olduğunun bir diğer göstergesi de apocalyptica'nın çellolarıyla klasik bir beste gibi yorumladığında da aynı etkileyiciliği, aynı muhteşem havasını korumasıdır.
one'la ilgili kişisel ilginç bir anım da 2005 yılında yaşandı.. 20'li yaşlarda bir tanıdığıma "peki yabancı müzik dinler misin?" diye sorduğumda biraz düşünüp "one dinlerim" diye yanıt vermesiydi.. *
klibinin parasızlık yüzünden değil, johnny got his gun adlı kusursuz filmden alınan sahneler nedeniyle siyah beyaz olan şarkıdır.
zaten şarkının kendisi bu filmden esinlenerek yazılmıştır. *
