Song Quote of the Day: Only One

Broken this fragile thing now
And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces
And I've thrown my words all around
But I can't, I can't give you a reason

I feel so broken up (so broken up)
And I give up (I give up)
I just want to tell you so you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one that gets me like you
You are my only, my only one

Made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone

And something's breaking up (breaking up)
I feel like giving up (like giving up)
I won't walk out until you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one that gets me like you
You are my only my only one

Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go and you will find someone

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one, no one like you
You are my only, my only one
My only one
My only one
My only one
You are my only, my only one

This is my all time favorite song. It's been that way for 4 years now. Sometimes I wonder why I love it so much and now I begin to analyze it. It has a great tune, great words, the singer has really good vowels especially later. This song truly strikes my heart in an unparalleled way. The violin is truly incredible. The music video is really good too. I was listening to a live and acoustic version of this song and I remembered once again how much I love this song. It truly inspires me. The way Ryan Key screams those notes, you can just feel the emotion pouring out of his soul as he sings. That is why I love Yellowcard so much. Most punk rock bands are all the same talking about how they got dumped and how much their girlfriend sucks. Yellowcard is different. They attack the core of the problem. They sing about other things, and when they sing I feel like they are "screaming their lungs out" to get people to hear what they are saying and to understand them. I feel like sometimes my soul is just screaming "Understand me! Please!" In that way I feel like Yellowcard is also a really relateable band and that nobody really sees them as such, but they truly are inspiring. They help me feel comfortable inside of myself and help me to reach to new depths inside of myself, so here is a thank you to Ryan Key (vocals and guitars), Sean Mackin (violin and vocals), Longineu Parsons III (drums), and Ryan Mendez (guitars). And thank you also for getting back together and creating a new album. I've been missing you guys. It sounds good and I am excited.
