The Only Ones - The Sounds

Where I grew up it was different

There was no violence or like other towns

But when I came home from school that night

I saw the cops were on the run

There were kids on the wall reaching up to the sky

Like a culture shock of joy

It sent me into a strong fascination

And what’s been lost is back

‘Cause we were the only ones

Darling and Me this time it’s going down

You know where I belong

And you know it’s time that we let go

Been drifting so far away from home

November came back and all was gone

You know where I belong, my darling

This time it’s going down

When December came I was older

And snow was finally on the ground

Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world

With pictures that would mark my mind

I heard his woman scream as she was begging for trust

Then turning ghost-like behind the court

A shotgun blast, as new years passed

Oppression was on the run

‘Cause we were the only ones

Darling and Me this time they’re going down

You know where I belong

You know it’s time that we let go

Been drifting so far away from home

November came back and all was gone

You know where I belong, my darling

This time they’re going down

They’re going down

You know where I belong

You know it’s time that we let go

Been drifting so far away from home

November came back and now it’s gone

You know where I belong, my darling

It’s going down
