One True Thing Lyrics & Chords By Midwest Kings

I could say that I'm alright.
I think that's what you want to hear.
Every time I step out of this door,
I just want to reappear
Somewhere else, a place I made up in my head
Before this world started taking pieces away (taking pieces away).

Just one breath that I can breathe,
Just one honest untouched scene.
Just one taste of rust to show the bars that cage are bending.
Just one melody that I can really sing.
After all you've taken, can you give me this One True Thing.

I could sway my feelings for yet another wasted day.
Never once will I be broken.
I will lock my heart away,
Somewhere else a place I made up in my head
Before this world started making its escape. I'm planning my escape.

Just one breath that I can breathe,
Just one honest untouched scene.
Just one taste of rust to show the bars that cage are bending.
Just one melody that I can really sing.
After all you've taken, can you give me this One True Thing.

3 am I wake myself from what I hoped was a dream.
Too many times I've been left with nothing.
I'm down to one.

Just one breath that I can breathe,
Just one honest untouched scene.
Just one taste of rust to show the bars that cage are bending.
Just one melody that I can really sing.
After all you've taken, can you give me this
One True Thing.
I'm down to one.
I'm down to one.
