I admit it…what’s to say…yeah…
I’ll relive it…without pain…mmm…
Backstreet lover on the side of the road
I got a bomb in my temple that is gonna explode
I got a sixteen gauge buried under my clothes, I play…
Once upon a time I could control myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah…

Oh, try and mimic what’s insane…ooh, yeah…
I am in it…where do I stand?
Oh, Indian summer and I hate the heat
I got a backstreet lover on the passenger seat
I got my hand in my pocket, so determined, discreet…I pray…
Once upon a time I could control myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah, yeah…

You think I got my eyes closed
But I’m lookin’ at you the whole fuckin’ time…

Ooh, once upon a time I could control myself, yeah…
Once upon a time I could lose myself, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Once, upon a time I could love myself, yeah…
Once upon a time I could love you, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Once (4x)
Yeah…once, once…yeah, yeah…
Yeah…yeah, yeah…yeah, yeah…oww…
