Beaten down with something
Just when I thought there was nothing
That could ever stop me
I've felt a weight on my shoulders at night
When handed more than one share
Of pain and adversity
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
If I had the choice
All I know is that with that choice
I'd have to pay
Deep down inside now I'm burning
The fire won't be contained
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
Maybe the thing that has saved me
It's the thing that kept a life tucked away
Where minds can't shine
Thinking you're onto something
When something to me, means nothing at all
No scars to hide
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
If I had the choice
All I know is that with that choice
I'd have to pay
Deep down inside now I'm burning
The fire won't be contained
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
Once in a lifetime
Once in my lifetime
This might resonate with you
With you
Once in a lifetime
Once in my lifetime
The thoughts you keep
Might get you through
You through
Some day soon
Name it true
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
If I had the choice
All I know is that with that choice
I'd have to pay
Deep down inside now I'm burning
The fire won't be contained
I've given up all the things that I love
And this won't end that way
Once in a lifetime
Once in my lifetime
This might resonate with you
With you
Once in a lifetime
Once in my lifetime
The thoughts you keep
Might get you through
You through
