Here we are, a careful distance
Heres my heart, whats left of it
In this town, I used to listen
Once, Once, Yeah
I had hope, blind faith
had as much as you can take
Im only gonna let you kill me once
Im only gonna let you kill me then some
Im 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 Im here to stay
I was so, I let you see me
That was dumb, but thats OK
Tripping down to your place
What is love anyway
Im only gonna let you kill me once
Im only gonna let you kill me then some
Im only gonna let you kill me
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Im only gonna let you kill me
You or whatever you do
Dont let anyone love you
Touch them where it hurts
And then youll leave
(same for the rest of the song)
