[ Featuring The Okemah Prophets ]
I bet you were an only child
Locked away all lonely and wild
Bet you never let anyone over the wall
Yeah i bet you felt it runnin' through your teenage blood
History repeatin' like it always does
Faces change, but time remains
Tickin' just the same as it ever was
If you want to, you can be
Lonely as you wanna be
Act like you don't know me
I know that's your style
But you are not the only only child
You know what you need but don't give it a name
Cause dyin' free beats livin' chained
Bet you'll never let anyone make you a slave
Well you can tell yourself whatever the hell you want
But if you never stop runnin' you'll never get caught
Life starts tickin' from the day your born
And this life, it's the only one you got
If you want to you can stay
All alone and far away
You think i don't know you
Just like i know myself
We're only children just like everyone else
Never look down, never look back
Never forget to cover your tracks
You're so careful, you're so cool
There just ain't no getting through to you, ooh
Only child, you're not that young
And you still don't know what you're runnin' from
But life keeps tickin' til the day you die
Tickin' just the same as it ever was
If you want to you can go
Far away and all alone
I was hopin' you might show me
Let go of your lonely
Cause you are not the only only child
