The One Thing Songtext
von Dead 50’s

Sometimes I look in the mirror
Sometimes I hate my face
And then you make it clearer
Point out all my mistakes
And now I′ve figured out
What life is gonna give
And now I've figured out
What life is
What life is
What life is

I see you looking my way
No joy is left but to play
Can′t stand to deal with greedy eyes
The lies, oh man, they never go away
The truth is one thing you lack
Already feel the poke in my back
Don't want my fifteen of fame
It's the same old man, I gotta get away


One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that′s killing me
One thing that keeps up my drive
One thing that′s bringing me
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that's killing me
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that′s killing me

Oh, so cold
Oh, so cold

I see your faces turning
Your wheels are always burning
So fast, forget just what we want
If that's the way it goes, I′m gonna give it up
Can't stand the way you′re pimping
Prize up my heart for the killing
If that's the way it's got to be
With me, oh man, I gotta get away

One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that′s killing me
One thing that keeps up my drive
One thing that′s bringing me
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that's killing me
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that′s killing me


Oh, so cold
Oh, so cold

One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that keeps up my drive
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that keeps up my drive
One thing that keeps me alive
One thing that's killing me
