Am I the Only One (Who's Ever Felt This Way) Lyrics

There is no damn reason
I should have to be so alone
I'm smothered by this emptiness
Lord, I wish I was made of stone
Like a fool I lent my soul to love
And it paid me back in shame

God help me,
Am I the only one who's ever felt this way?

Well, a heart's that worn and weathered
Would know better than to fight
But I wore mine like a weapon
Laid out love like a crime
And it rubbed me out and it scrubbed me out
And it hung years on my face

God help me,
Am I the only one who's ever felt this way?

Now my sense of humor needs a break
I see a shadow in the mirror
And she's laughing through her tears
One more smile is all I can fake

There is a wound inside me
And it's bleeding like a flood
And there are times I see a light ahead
Hope is not enough
As another night surrounds me
And it calms me like a wave

God help me,
Am I the only one who's ever felt this way?
God help me,
Am I the only one who's ever felt this way?
