This One
This One was one of the first songs written for Living Targets. The song was recorded during their first session in Cologne during late 2000. It was produced by Uwe Sabirowsky.
It was featured on a promo-cassette tape, given out by the band throughout the Summer of 2001. The tape is pretty interesting as it mentions Living Targets' scrapped name The Ordinary Me. View the promo-tape here.
Beatsteaks played the song quite a lot during their Living Targets tour. Soon thereafter however, it was abandoned completely, only being played a couple of times in 2010.
[Verse 1]
Every day's the same
Got to play the game
Got to smile if you don't want to
Boring walks to walk boring
Talks to talk
And you wish it would not be true
[Chorus]
If you're devastated put it all in this one
If your world is jaded put it all in this one
[Verse 2]
Every night in vain
Every friend's the same
Just a lie and a wasted tear
Scared of coming home
Cause you're all alone
'Will I make my way out of here?'
[Bridge]
Get down
Get down
Get down
If your world is getting small without
All the things you thought it's all about
If the pleasure of a brand new day
With the sunlight starts to fade away
If your world is getting small without
All the things you thought it's all about
If the pleasure of a brand new day
Fade away
