Album: Still Not Getting Any
Songwriters: Pierre Bouvier, Chuck Comeau
Additional collaboration: Bob Rock (production), Bob Buckley (string arrangements)
Length: 3:21
This song has been written towards the end of the writing process for “Still Not Getting Any”. In 2004, Chuck mentioned the song in an interview with ModernDrummer.com. This is an excerpt from the article:
“You gotta call one of your songs “One”. Metallica did it, so we thought we might as well be cocky jackasses too.”
– Chuck Comeau –
After initially taking a crack at that tune, the group didn’t quite dig it. So they re-wrote it with an intriguing dancehall rhythm inspired by Sean Paul.
We are the lost
The ones forgotten
And this time
The future is ours
It’s in our hands
We’re the tear in your eyes
We’re the blood in your veins
We’re the beat of your hearts
We’re the sweat on your face
We’re the ones that you chase
We’re the promise that you made
We’re the voice in your head
We’re the lies that you said
We’re the kids that you pushed away
We are…
We are the lost
The ones forgotten
And this time
The future is ours
It’s in our hands
We are one
We’re the pride of your lives
We’re the light shining deep in your eyes
We’re the choice that you made
We’re the smile on your face
When you sleep at night
We’re the best thing you had
But you left us behind
We’re the kids that you pushed away
We are the lost
The ones forgotten
And this time
The future is ours
It’s in our hands
We are one, one
We’re the pain that you feel
We’re the scars that don’t heal
We’re the tear in your eyes
We’re the reason you cry
We’re the voice in your head
We’re the lies that you said
We’re the best thing you had
But you pushed us away
We are the lost
The ones forgotten
And this time
The future is ours
It’s in our hands
We are, we are the lost
The ones forgotten
And we’ve got nothing to lose
Together we stand up tall
We are one
