Once

I finally hit bottom on that bus ride home*
Fears I tried not to acknowledge dug their claws into my throat
Give up on finding anyone to give up to
It will never be sincere
It will never be nearly as true
I won’t rediscover the willingness to trust another
We only love but once
We’re only capable of love but once
When you say you feel the same about anybody else
Either you’re lying to me or you’re lying to yourself
Which means you never felt it to begin with
Or that what I thought we held never existed
I won’t rediscover the willingness to trust another
We only love but once
We’re only capable of love but once
