Once Lyrics

Go easy on yourself, and check up on your health

Don't you ever think twice if you need to ask for help

Used to always be 'pray to God and Jesus Christ

Now it's always me, acting fine and playing nice

You once were a kid, now you'll never be again

There once was a time when you'd always see your friends

There once was a place when you recognized the view

There once was a time when you thought your love was true

Maybe once, you'll understand what it's like to be me

You can take my hand with yours

You can show me how to breathe

If I run along with you, will you always keep your word?

If I sang a song to you, could you tell me what you heard?

Oh, there once was a time when I had all of this time

Back when suicide wasn't all that's on my mind

I was holding on, blood dripping from the knife

Oh, I didn't wanna die, I just found a place to hide

Oh, there once was a time when I had all of this time

Back when suicide wasn't all that's on my mind

I was holding on, blood dripping from the knife

Oh, I didn't wanna die, I just found a place to hide

Oh, there once was a time when I was happy inside

There once was a place I could go just to hide

Used to hold me tight when I wasn't feeling right

You once broke my heart, 'cept I let you do it twice

When you spoke about your past, well, it always made you cry

Now I do it by myself, maybe you're the reason why

Oh, I once could fall asleep without taking any pills

Oh, there used to be a time when everything in life was real

There once was a time when I'd fall asleep with you

Now you always haunt my dreams, took a piece of me with you

Oh, I used to have a dream, now it's hiding from the truth

Seems all my best times ran away from me with you

Oh, there once was a time when I had all of this time

Back when suicide wasn't all that's on my mind

I was holding on, blood dripping from the knife

Oh, I didn't wanna die, I just found a place to hide

Oh, there once was a time when I had all of this time

Back when suicide wasn't all that's on my mind

I was holding on, blood dripping from the knife

Oh, I didn't wanna die, I just found a place to hide
