The only one I know
Has come to take me away
The only one I know
Is mine when she stitches me

The only one I see
Has found and aching in me
The only one I see
Has turned her tongue into me


Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain

The only one I know
Never cries, never opens her eyes
The only one I know
Wide awake and then she's away

The only one I see
Is mine when she walks down our street
The only one I see
Has carved her way into me


Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
