Here we are, a careful distance.
Here’s my heart, what’s left of it.
In this town, I used to listen…
Once, once, yeah…
I had hope, blind faith
Had as much as you could take.
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, once, once, yeah… (x3)
I’m only gonna let you kill me once.
Ashes burn the morning after.
Only know I’m here to stay.
I was so, I let you see me.
That was dumb, but that’s OK.
Tripping down to your place.
What is love anyway?
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, once, once, yeah… (x3)
I’m only gonna let you kill me once.
Who or whatever you do
Don’t let anyone hurt you,
Touch them where it hurts
And watch them leave…
I’m only gonna let you kill me once,
I’m only gonna let you kill me then some,
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, once, once, yeah… (x3)
I’m only gonna let you kill me once. (x2)
