One​-​Way

lyrics

I see your face in its upturned shape
Torched and brandished on a spotlit stage
An alarming realization makes you come to

With that burden on your back
You really find out what it is you lack
If you have the mettle to carry it through

An ugly display of what it means
To be picked up tossed around and unseen
The full release of their missiles right on cue

Sometimes, sometimes
It really seems there is no reason or rhyme
For the ceaseless trouble it puts you through

It all amounts to a headache
Dragging you down
Dragging you back into bed
There’s nothing left for you to take
You can’t turn around
Can’t turn away from the mess you left

This is a one-way
This is a one-way

I have sympathy, I truly do
I know what it’s like to be run through
To be running on empty with miles to go

But all the choices you made before
Contributed to this closing of the doors
You’re out of routes to take except for one, it’s true

It all amounts to a headache
Dragging you down
Dragging you back into bed
There’s nothing left for you to take
You can’t turn around
Can’t turn away from the mess you left

This is a one-way
This is a one-way

It all amounts to an outtake
A sliver of time
In which you get to stay
There is no other possible way
It’s isn’t a line
It is a light-borne ray

This is a one-way
This is a one-way
This is a one-way

And that is ok
This is a one-way
And that has to be okay

This is a one-way
