Not The Only One
Dear Editor,
I am sharing the lyrics to my new favorite song with you and your readers. I was moved to tears when I heard the song online.
Am I the Only One by Aaron Lewis
Am I the only one, here tonight
Shakin’ my head and thinkin’ somethin’ ain’t right
Is it just me? Am I losin’ my mind?
Am I standin’ on the edge of the end of time?
Am I the only one? Tell me I’m not
Who thinks they’re takin’ all the good we got
And turnin’ it bad, hell, I’ll be damned
I think I’m turnin’ into my old man
Am I the only one, willin’ to bleed
Or take a bullet for bein’ free
Screamin’, “What the [hell]” at my TV
For tellin’ me, yeah, are you tellin’ me?
That I’m the only one, willin’ to fight
For my love of the red and white
And the blue, burnin’ on the ground
Another statue comin’ down in a town near you
Watchin’ the threads of Old Glory come undone
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one not brainwashed?
Makin’ my way through the land of the lost
Who still gives a [damn], and worries ’bout his kids
As they try to undo all the things he did?
Am I the only one who can’t take no more
Screamin’, “If you don’t like it there’s the [freakin’] door”
This ain’t the freedom we’ve been fightin’ for
It was somethin’ more, yeah, it was somethin’ more
Am I the only one, willin’ to fight
For my love of the red and white
And the blue, burnin’ on the ground
Another statue comin’ down in a town near you
Watchin’ the threads of Old Glory come undone
I’m not the only one
I can’t be the only one
Am I the only one who quits singing’ along
Every time they play a Springsteen song
Am I the only one sittin’ here
Still holdin’ on, holdin’ back my tears
For the ones who paid with the lives they gave
God bless the U.S.A
I’m not the only one, willin’ to fight
For my love of the red and white
And the blue, burnin’ on the ground
Another statue coming’ down in a town near you
Watchin’ the threads of Old Glory come undone.
I’m not the only one

You are not alone Ma’am.
I am appalled that all Democrats look at conservatives and call them rascist because the right does not fall in line with the Dems.This happens every 4 years because Dems think if they say something over and over it has an effect on the right.The Dems are really good at two things ,1) spending your money and 2) Lying..If their mouth opens and noise comes out they are lying.Greensboro and Guilford County get wise and vote out all the Dems!!!!!You have seen the Dems cannot run anything!!!!!!!!!Lynn you are not alone but we have to step up and make changes in the politics of Greensboro.You have tried the Democrats way for 30-40 years let’s give the conservatives a chance!!
Me too! Hope you have also heard Toby Keiths Happy Birthday America.
Great song and very touching…..I feel just like he does….great music !!
