Dark Tranquillity
Am I 1?
[Verse 1]
I grant to you
No privilege of person
No sense of self
A denial of choice
It wants out
So from all the little bits and pieces
A simple case of lost and found
A wicked new beginning
I don't ever want to see

[Pre-Chorus]
It's the oldest trick in the book
Just like everything you always knew
Turned upon its very end
There's nothing left to be

[Verse 2]
I've got half a mind to say
All the things that bother me today

[Pre-Chorus]
You better check if it's me
In that coffin of yours
Or just the one
The one you thought you knew
[Chorus]
I am one, who am I?
No character to be lost inside

[Bridge]
A mind is hard to please
So wander aimlessly

[Verse 3]
Hands clenched in fists of rage
Concealed in frustration
There's a part of me that cannot deal
With the character I am forced to be
A thinly veiled plan to lay your world afoot
Lost in community, blind in belonging

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there really nothing more than this?
The emptiness remains
So put on your brave face
And take the plunge again

[Chorus]
I am one, who am I?
No character to be lost inside
