Is it getting better,
or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you,
now you got someone to blame?
You say one love, one life,
when it's one need in the night.
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it.
Did I disappoint you
or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight
to drag the past out into the light.
We're one, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other,
carry each other... one
Have you come here for forgiveness,
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
to the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got.
We're one, but we're not the same.
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again.
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got, when all you got is hurt.
One love, one blood, one life,
you got to do what you should.
One life with each other: sisters, brothers.
One life, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other.
One, one.
