To Be the One

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] Yeah, and the sun, it tries to warn me "Boy, those wings are made of wax" While the things I do to kill me They just tell me to relax [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 4] 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 a fool [Verse 5] Damn, don't the streets feel empty, though? Just wandering 'round here without you Oh, the empty bottle, it misses you And I'm the one it's talking to [Chorus] 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
