-Note: the lyrics shown here are from the studio
version of the song. This live version of the song
included a long rant where Billy mostly repeatedly
sings "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Gimme nothing."
Fans have speculated that SP added this rant
because they were sick of playing "I Am One", so
they had to add something to make it interesting.
-The afformentioned rant would return in what
was thought to be SP's final show at Metro (12/2/
2000). It was mixed with another rant Billy had
done during the middle of the song while touring for
Machina. The rant ends with Billy proclaiming, "We
are The Machines of God!".
I am one as you are three
Try to find a messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
Am I as I seem?
I'm down
Down, so down
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
Try to find a messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
Am I as I seem?
I'm down
Down, so down
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
