About Once In a Lifetime

Once In A Lifetime was written in the midst of a pandemic, which All Time Low singer Alex Gaskarth feels is reflected in the subject matter. "It's a song about heartbreak...people going through a trial...that feeling of an epic loss," he said in a Rock Sound interview not long before the release of the song. "It just felt like a sentiment that made sense and needed to be touched on." He also compared the song to one of the band's most popular tracks, which came off their previous album, Wake Up, Sunshine. .

Once In a Lifetime Lyrics

[00:00.29] Once in a lifetime
[00:01.77]
[00:05.72] Once in a lifetime
[00:08.67]
[00:12.48] I wanna drink, wanna think
[00:14.03] Write a song about it
[00:15.58] I wanna smoke, make a joke
[00:17.06] Try to hide the damage
[00:18.43] I wanna drive this car right over the edge
[00:20.58] Of every bad idea I didn't have yet
[00:23.48] I look at you, look at me
[00:25.36] Feeling kinda tragic
[00:26.56] Dazed and confused, hard to see
[00:28.16] Where we lost the magic
[00:29.46] I never meant to be hypocritical
[00:32.26] These fucking crazy rides left me cynical
[00:34.82] Just like that
[00:36.99] I know there's no turning back
[00:39.84] We already made this bed
[00:42.55] No, I can't even sleep in it
[00:44.95] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[00:48.39] Take it fast and kill me slow
[00:51.23] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[00:53.82] 'Til I hit an all-time low
[00:57.24] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[00:59.80] To throw out everything we had
[01:02.39] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[01:05.38] I hope a heart only breaks this bad
[01:08.72] Once in a lifetime
[01:11.14] Once in a lifetime
[01:14.73] I try to run, try to hide
[01:16.72] Just forget about it
[01:17.89] I tell myself every night
[01:19.41] I could live without it
[01:20.63] I wanna say goodbye to the loneliness
[01:23.47] But every time I do, I make another mess
[01:26.26] Just like that
[01:28.42] I know there's no looking back
[01:30.92] We already made this bed
[01:33.68] And I can't even sleep in it
[01:36.39] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[01:39.61] Take it fast and kill me slow
[01:42.23] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[01:45.36] 'Til I hit an all-time low
[01:48.26] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[01:51.29] To throw out everything we had
[01:54.02] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[01:56.78] I hope a heart only breaks this bad
[02:00.28] Once in a lifetime
[02:02.96] Once in a lifetime
[02:05.34] Once in a lifetime
[02:07.93] Once in a lifetime
[02:11.04] Just like that
[02:14.18] I know there's no turning back
[02:16.95] We already made this bed
[02:19.69] And I can't even sleep in it
[02:24.48] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[02:27.23] Take it fast and kill me slow
[02:29.47] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[02:32.41] 'Til I hit an all-time low
[02:35.17] Once in a lifetime, never the right time
[02:38.28] To throw out everything we had
[02:41.02] Try to forget you, gotta pretend to
[02:43.88] I hope a heart only breaks this bad
[02:46.60] Once in a lifetime
[02:49.66] Once in a lifetime (I hope a heart only breaks this bad)
[02:52.34] Once in a lifetime
[02:55.35] Once in a lifetime
[02:57.57]
