Just for Once

I wanna tell you everything

I wanna let you in

But innocence is so long gone

Where would I begin?

If you were me, you’d do the same

You will never know my pain

But maybe this time I will fall

I think it’s time to lose it all

 

Just for once, I will break

I will fall flat on my face

Let you catch me, if you dare

Is there anybody out there?

I just wanna let it go

I don’t wanna be alone

Just for once

 

I try not to fall apart

But I break my bleeding heart

Tell me it will be okay

I won’t listen anyway

So don’t turn out the light

Because I will give in tonight

 

Take it all away; I can’t do this alone

If you can hear me, can you take me home?

 

Just for once, I will break

I will fall flat on my face

Let you catch me, if you dare

Is there anybody out there?

I just wanna let it go

I don’t wanna be alone

Just for once

 

Just this once
