Lyrics One of Us - Mayday Parade

One of Us

I just gotta tell you one last thing
How the angels make their way home
I saw it carved into a headstone
That came to me so suddenly
Right there
And this temporary body we call home
You get the most if you don’t look back
You get the most if you save it up
You want fire, I’ve got fire, girl
And things that seem impossible until you get to know me
You’re one of us, here’s exactly what you’ll need to make it through
Good times and hard times
We’re here to fight for you
March along
Don’t forget to tell the ones you love they matter
When you break the bend
Fall off again
You’ll find your love where it’s always been
You’ve gotta fight the beast inside
And all the while enjoy the ride
You’ve gotta keep an open mind
And willingness to change
Well God knows I’ve changed
I talk like I’m wounded now
I walk like I don’t know how
Maybe I could re-teach myself
One foot in front of the other one
You’re one of us, here’s exactly what you’ll need to make it through
Good times and hard times
We’re here to fight for you
March along
Don’t forget to tell the ones you love they matter
When you break the bend
Fall off again
You’ll find your love where it’s always been
I will carry my heart back home now
This place doesn’t hold any secrets anymore
Feels like I didn’t fight
Didn’t give it all I could and now it’s gone
You’re one of us, here’s exactly what you’ll need to make it through
Good times and hard times
We’re here to fight for you
March along
Don’t forget to tell the ones you love they matter
When you break the bend
Fall off again
You’ll find your love where it’s always been
