The Only Ones

Lyrics

Where I grew up it was different There was no violence or like other towns But when I came home from school that night I saw the cops were on the run There were kids on the wall reaching up to the sky Like a culture shock of joy It sent me into a strong fascination And what’s been lost is back ‘Cause we were the only ones Darling and Me this time it’s going down You know where I belong And you know it’s time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and all was gone You know where I belong, my darling This time it’s going down When December came I was older And snow was finally on the ground Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world With pictures that would mark my mind I heard his woman scream as she was begging for trust Then turning ghost-like behind the court A shotgun blast, as new years passed Oppression was on the run ‘Cause we were the only ones Darling and Me this time they’re going down You know where I belong You know it’s time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and all was gone You know where I belong, my darling This time they’re going down They’re going down You know where I belong You know it’s time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and now it’s gone You know where I belong, my darling It’s going down
