One (Live at Oslo Spektrum, Oslo, Norway - November 23rd, 1996) Lyrics

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel the scream
This terrible sight it stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up in hell, I'll see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain

I hold my breath inside and wish for death
Oh please God wake me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In one life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I lived
Made through the tubes that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novel scene
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this shit off from me

Hold my breath inside and wish for death
Oh please God wake me
God wake me

Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God help me
Hold my breath inside and wish for death

Oh please God help me

I cannot live, I cannot carry
The weight of myself, weight of my own existence
There's a voice that's taking my time
Taking my speech, taking my hearing
Taking my arms, taking my legs
Taking my soul, taking my life
Please help
No, no, no

It sounds like you've heard that song before

You might hear it again
Like right fucking now
Did you guys, uh, did you guys enjoy that?
I did
Did you enjoy that?

You gotta enjoy something, right? Come on
Uh, did you enjoy Corrosion of Conformity?
You like 'em, right?
Same here, man, so uh
I have to dedicate this song to them
'Cause they, uh, drink as much as we do
