Once

Once
I admit it, what's to say, yeah
I'll relive it without pain
Hmm, backstreet lover on the side of the road
I got a bomb in my temple that is gonna explode
I got a sixteen gauge buried under my clothes, I play

Once upon a time I could control myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah
Oh, try and mimic what's insane, oh, yeah
I am in it, where do I stand?
Oh, Indian summer and I hate the heat
I got a backstreet lover on the passenger seat
I got my hand in my pocket, so determined, discreet, I pray
Once upon a time I could control myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah, yeah, yeah
You think I got my eyes closed
But I'm looking at you the whole fucking time
I'm gonna keep a look once more
Ooh, once upon a time I could control myself, yeah
Once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah, yeah, yeah
Once, upon a time I could love myself, yeah
Once upon a time I could love you, yeah, yeah, yeah
Once, once, once, once
Yeah, once, once, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, once
