[Verse 1]
The only one I know
Has come to take me away
The only one I know
Is mine when she stitches me
[Verse 2]
The only one I see
Has found an aching in me
The only one I see
Has turned her tongue into me
[Chorus]
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
[Verse 3]
The only one I know
Never cries, never opens her eyes
The only one I know
Wide awake and then she's away
[Verse 4]
The only one I see
Is mine when she walks down the street
The only one I see
Has carved her way into me
[Chorus]
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
