Once Upon a Time

Verse 1

Once upon a time, I cared

What others felt

But it became impossible to

Play the cards that they delt

Once upon a time, I cared

What other thought

Fighting fights, I should had

Never have fought

Once upon a time, I needed

Approval from friends

But all friends do are fuck you

Over in the end

Chorus 1

Once upon a time, My words

Used to rhyme

Once upon a time, I had control

Of my mind

Once upon a time, oh once

Upon a time

Verse 2

Once upon a time, I used to

Follow the crowd

And I’ve done things of which I

Am not proud

Once upon a time I thought life

Was just a game

But as the game ran out I ran

Out of ones to blame

Once upon a time I took life

With a grain of salt

Until I realized all my failures

Were actually my fault

Chorus 2

Once upon a time, my words

Used to rhyme

Once upon a time, I cared if I

Lived or died

Once upon a time, oh once

Upon a time

Guitar Solo

Bridge

Once upon a time, my words

Used to rhyme

Once upon a time, before life

Left me petrified

Epilogue

Once upon a time, I thought my

Life might have mattered

But it’s difficult to give a damn

When life leaves you

Bruised and battered

Once upon a time,

I didn’t have a clue

But I learned real quick when I

Was beaten black and blue

As days turned into years, they

Continued to dismiss

My every word

Cause once upon a time, I just

Wanted to be heard
