One Man Army Lyrics
Take these plastic people
Read their lips, now let it linger
Is there anything that makes them sound sincere?
C'mon
Tightly hold your hand
Take a deep breath, give them the finger
Are you worried
That your thoughts are not quite clear?
(Twitch)
Overlooked, unfit appearance
<i>Chorus</i>:
I remember falling
I remember marching
Like a one man army
Through the blaze
I know I'm coughing
I believe in something
I don't want to remember falling
For your lies
Unbutton your clothes
Undress your soul, show them your vigor
Are those inhibitions easiest to fear?
C'mon
Take this gasoline tin
Head up high, walk like a winner
Let the bare feet be the last sounds that they hear
(Twitch)
Overlooked, unfit appearance
<i>Chorus</i>
Crawling
I remember falling
I remember marching
Like a one man army
Through the blaze
I know I'm coughing
I believe in something
I don't want to remember falling
I remember crawling
Through the ways
I know I'm falling
I remember marching
I don't want to remember falling
I don't want to remember falling
For their lies
Read their lips, now let it linger
Is there anything that makes them sound sincere?
C'mon
Tightly hold your hand
Take a deep breath, give them the finger
Are you worried
That your thoughts are not quite clear?
(Twitch)
Overlooked, unfit appearance
I remember falling
I remember marching
Like a one man army
Through the blaze
I know I'm coughing
I believe in something
I don't want to remember falling
For your lies
Undress your soul, show them your vigor
Are those inhibitions easiest to fear?
C'mon
Take this gasoline tin
Head up high, walk like a winner
Let the bare feet be the last sounds that they hear
(Twitch)
Overlooked, unfit appearance
Crawling
I remember falling
I remember marching
Like a one man army
Through the blaze
I know I'm coughing
I believe in something
I don't want to remember falling
I remember crawling
Through the ways
I know I'm falling
I remember marching
I don't want to remember falling
I don't want to remember falling
For their lies

It's about finding your own individuality and how it's hard to march alone.
great song, good music video also. raine maida's really quite nice looking in it :)
This song speaks for itself, and I love the message and how straight-forward it is.
i think the song is about all the people in the guy slife that have treated him bad and let hinm just slip away and he doesn't want to remember that he just wants to remember how its was when it was just him
i think he's saying how he wants to be his own person, but it's really hard to do on your own. and it'd be easier if he didn't have to be a 'one man army' but had someone who was like him. he's also saying to keep yourself from becoming like them, just keep yourself away from them.
This song is my theme song! points to her username For me, it represents my own struggle with my individuality and has a personal message for me.
all I can say is I love Our Lady Peace! this is one of my fav songs ever=)
This is my favourtite OLP song by far! Its about letting go of the world around you, your past, the people who bring you down and learning to be alone. Relying on you and only you, and not being afraid to do so. About realising who you are, and accepting it without caring what anyone else may think. This song gives me strenght and courage to face the day, and helps me to be comfortable in my own skin. It helps me let go of all the shit the people around me throw and just go to a special place inside my head.
"Tightly hold your hand/Take a deep breath/Give them the finger" Oy I love that!
I agree with PrecipitatingDreams...it's about facing the world and pulling through the day holding on to what you believe...not taking any crap from other people.
amazing song... absolutely amazing
