One by One

Someone's got the answer
Someone knows the truth
Someone's got the recipe
Someone knows the cure

But they're too busy counting
Want to keep counting
Going to keep counting
Until they can't count anymore
While we count the minutes
Count the seconds, count the days
Until the days run out and we're no more
On the phone, hold on
On a list that's much too long
The names keep coming off
But it's taking too long
I can't take this so long

One by one
Maybe I can live again
One by one
Maybe I can feel again
One by one
Maybe I can live again
One by one
One by one

Single file, say a while
Can't you see, can't you see
I'm trying something new out?
Try it out, try it out
Single file, say a while
Can't you see, can't you see
I'm trying something new out?
Try it out, try it out

But they're too busy counting
Want to keep counting
Going to keep counting
Until they can't count anymore
While we count the minutes
Count the seconds, count the days
Until the days run out and we're no more
On the phone, hold on
On a list that's much too long
The names keep coming off
But it's taking too long
I can't take this so long

One by one
Maybe I can live again
One by one
Maybe I can feel again
One by one
Maybe I can live again
One by one
One by one

One by one
One by one
