Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
[Verse 2]
I wanna drink, wanna think, write a song about it
I wanna smoke, make a joke, try to hide the damage
I wanna drive this car right over the edge
Of every bad idea I didn't have yet
[Verse 3]
I look at you, look at me, feeling kinda tragic
Dazed and confused, hard to see where we lost the magic
I never meant to be hypocritical
This fucking crazy ride's left me cynical
[Verse 4]
And just like that
I know there's no turning back
We already made this bed
And I can't even sleep in it
[Verse 5]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
Take it fast and kill me slow
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
Till I hit an all time low
[Verse 6]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
To throw out everything we had
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
I hope a heart only breaks this bad
Once in a lifetime
(Once in a lifetime)
[Verse 7]
I try to run, try to hide just forget about it
I tell myself every night I could live without it
I wanna say goodbye to the loneliness
But every time I do, I make another mess
[Verse 8]
And just like that
I know there's no looking back
We already made this bed
And I can't even sleep in it
[Verse 9]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
Take it fast and kill me slow
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
Till I hit an all time low
[Verse 10]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
To throw out everything we had
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
I hope a heart only breaks this bad
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
[Verse 11]
And just like that
I know there's no turning back
We already made this bed
And I can't even sleep in it
[Verse 12]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
Take it fast and kill me slow
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
Till I hit an all time low
[Verse 13]
Once in a lifetime, never the right time
To throw out everything we had
Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
I hope a heart only breaks this bad
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime(I hope a heart only breaks this bad)
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
