Once lyrics

Back to the earth

From whence you come

Down to the bone

The cold and the rain

You bang on the window

You sing like a bird in a cage

And you feel like

A rat on a wheel

Oh, would something give...

Just this once, once

Let something good happen

Just this once, once

Let the stars align

Just this one time

It's not that I want

The world to be mine

Oh, an army of hearts

When one would be fine

I just want some respite from

The voice in my head

These nails on a blackboard

This grave for a bed

Oh, won't something give now...

Just once, once

Let something good happen

Just this once, once

Let the stars align

Just this one time

It feels like a whistle

Time

And it flows

'round the corners

And through my hands

Oh

Just once, once

Let something good happen

Just this once, once

Let the stars align

Just one time

One time please

One time please
