Once

Текст песни Caleb Kane - Once

You change in front of me
Your eyes get darker every day
It happens quietly
Your focus slowly burns away

And if you let me hear
The things you seem to want to say
Though I am late
I will wait to go until I know you're somewhere safe

And even if you chose
To lock yourself away
If I listen close
I can almost hear you say

Once I was real
Once I was somebody's child
Once I could feel
Some feeling once in a while
Once I was here
Once I was somebody's friend
Once I appear
I will be real again

You're falling into it
An inescapable release
Or something intimate
Between the you that no one sees
Is there a way inside?
You only hide from enemies
Cause I'll wait
I'm afraid you won't get rid of me so easily

And even if you chose
To lock the world away
If I listen close
I can almost hear you say

Once I was real
Once I had something to lose
Once I could feel
Once I was harder to bruise
Once I was here
Once I was willing to bend
Once I appear
I will be real once again

You're falling farther than
I've ever seen you fall before
For me to wonder when
I'll recognize you anymore

To see no light inside your eyes at all
To bang my head against the wall
And force myself to watch you pull away
And even if you chose
To lock the world away
If I listen close
I can almost hear you say

Once I was real
Once I was somebody's child
Once I could feel
Some feeling once in awhile
Once I was here
Once I was somebody's friend
Once I appear
I will be here once again
Once I was real
Once I was somebody's child
Once I could feel
Some feeling once in awhile
Once I was here
Once I somebody's friend
Once I appear
I will be real once again
