The One
Treyarch Sound Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All my life I've been debating
All the crows they sit there waiting
Wondering what I'm going to eat
Until I have it, I can't sleep
I finally see you on the floor
Your heart's not beating anymore
My lust for you just can not wait
Your skin it tastes like chocolate (Oh, it tastes so good)
Staring blankly at the sun
Waiting for my time to come
Your happy life, it makes me sick
All the screaming sounds like music
Lucid are my pooling dreams
Someone tell me what they mean
There's an iron smell of blood in the air
But I can't find it anywhere

I've been waiting for someone to find me
And become a part of me (A part of me)
I've been waiting for you to come here
And kill me and set me free (Set me free)
I've been waiting for...

Blood flavor, so metallic
Smell makes me go fanatic
Textures that I find in you
Is a thick viscous glue
My senses have become so keen
With all I touch and all I see
There's an iron smell of blood in the air
And now I see it everywhere

I've been waiting for someone to find me
And become a part of me (I've been waiting)
(A part of me)
I've been waiting for you to come here
And kill me and set me free
I've been waiting for the one

I've been waiting for the one
(The one, the one)
I've been waiting for someone
(Become a part of me)
I've been waiting for you to come here
And kill me (Set me free)
I've been waiting for...

I've been waiting for someone to find me
And become a part of me (I've been waiting)
(A part of me)
I've been waiting for you to come here
And kill me and set me free (I've been waiting)
(Set me free)
I've been waiting for, yeah

I've been waiting for you to come here




And kill me (Set me free)
I've been waiting for...
