Once

Here we are, a careful distance

Here's my heart, what's left of it

In this town, I used to listen

Once, once, yeah

I had hope, blind faith

I had as much as you can take

I'm only gonna let you kill me once

I'm only gonna let you kill me then some

I'm only gonna let you kill me

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once

Ashes burn the morning after

Only know I'm here to stay

I was sold, I let you see me

That was dumb, but that's okay

Tripping down to your place

What is love, anyway?

I'm only gonna let you kill me once

I'm only gonna let you kill me then some

I'm only gonna let you kill me

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

I'm only gonna let you kill me

Who or whatever you do

Don't let anyone love you

Touch them where it hurts

And then you'll leave

I'm only gonna let you kill me once

I'm only gonna let you kill me then some

I'm only gonna let you kill me

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

Once, once, once, yeah

I'm only gonna let you kill me
