[Chorus]
Once was a time I was living to please myself
I thought everybody loved me, and knew my name
There once was a time I was living to please myself
I thought everybody loved me, and knew my name
And boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong
Boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong

[Verse]
Mother taught me to believe
Cleanse my heart of disease
And I was closed up when she spoke
Never was I listening

[Bridge]
Now I am running out of time
Now I am running out of time
And every window in my town is boarded up and locked down
I wasn't smart enough to hide, the clouds let out the universal sigh

[Chorus]
Once was a time I was living to please myself
I thought everybody loved me, and knew my name
There once was a time I was living to please myself
I thought everybody loved me, and knew my name
And boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong
Boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong, boy was I wrong

[Outro]
Once was a time I was living to please myself
Once was a time I was living to please myself
Once was a time I was living to please myself
Once was a time I was living to please myself
Once was a time I was living to please myself
