Evanescence: The Only One Meaning

The Only One Lyrics

When they all come crashing down, midflight,
You know you're not the only one.
When they're so alone they find a back door out of life.
You know you're not the only one.

We're all grieving,
Lost and bleeding.

All our lives,
We've been...

   I don't think it's telling people to "stop bitching" I think it's more about...Understanding of the feelings...And...When she says, "Never understood this life, and you right I don't deserve, but you know you're not the only one" I think it means that...She didn't want to lose someone and was trying to prove to them that everyone is lost. And that everyone may actually feel it. "Don't look down, don't look into the eyes of the world beneath you, don't look down you'll fall down, you'll become their sacrifice" Is telling the person that if you lose hope, and that if believe what you're telling yourself, then you will fall...Or something like that...

   I agree Amy has said that she was Depressed at one time I can relate to being Depressed I think she is trying to say that you might think your the only one but your not that there other people that are goingthough the same feelings as you

   I believe this song is about how every one in the world aren't always happy and that everyone experiences bad days or sad times and that they are not the only ones that have those kinds of.experiences.

   its about people with narrow minds...
   
   "When they all come crashing down, midflight
   You know you're not the only one"
   
   saying that your not the only one it happened to, so stop acting like it
   
   You know you're not the only one that never understood this life
   
   same as above
   
   its about being narrow minded like I said, nothing else really

   Lol, tuna...Anyway, when I heard this song, I thought about a lot of my online friends, and how they just love to brag about how depressed they are. As if they're special for being sad. They know they're not the only one. We're all bleeding. We don't need to hear that others are, too, or we might as well just give in to believe that the whole world is corrupted by depression! We need someone to call a leader - someone who is above this so-called trend of sadness. So if you're gonna brag about something, brag about how happy you are if you really wanna be special.
   
   Sorry, that was prolly the most shallow response I ever gave to an evanescence song. A million apologies.

   And a little known fact, in the beginning where you hear the lady singing and saying "tuna" they put that in because the title was originally going to be called "tuna" or something like that because amy lee had made tuna casserole that day...Very pretty song also.
