After parting ways with vocalist Joey Belladonna, Anthrax debuted their new singer John Bush (also of Armored Saint) to the world with “Only”, the lead single of their sixth album Sound Of White Noise.
Metallica frontman James Hetfield once called it a “perfect song” and originally said it was his...
Only Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everything is perfect
Everything is sick, and that's it
You can't tell me to stop it
You can't tell me not to quit, and that's it
[Pre-Chorus]
Revolve around yourself
It's you and no one else
Hard for me to stay
Swinging moods that change
Calmness to deranged
Unpredictable, unpredictable
[Chorus]
You would see if
Only
You hadn't taken things out of my hands
Only
You never wanted to understand
[Verse 2]
Clashing ways to live here
Compromise for me, yeah
I'm at both ends of the spectrum
You're somewhere in the between, ah, come clean
[Pre-Chorus]
Revolve around yourself
It's you and no one else
Hard for me to stay
Swinging moods that change
Calmness to deranged
Unpredictable, unpredictable
[Chorus]
You would see if
Only
You hadn't taken things out of my hands
Only
You never wanted to understand, ha
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Only
You hadn't taken things out of my hands
Only
You never wanted to understand
Only
You hadn't taken things out of my hands (out of my hands)
Only
You never wanted to understand
[Bridge]
Crucified (Only)
Terrified (You hadn't taken things)
Sacrifice (Out of my hands)
My whole life
My whole life (Only)
My whole life (You never wanted)
My whole life (To understand)
My whole life
[Outro]
If only, if only
If only, if only
I can't contain myself
I can't contain myself
I just can't take myself

What did Anthrax say about "Only"?
That was the first song that John wrote with us. Instantly, it became such a very catchy song, and we were all really excited about that. And then what that record became after that was really exciting. Some people said we went a little ‘grunge’ on that record, but the only reason why they say that...
