Once More Lyrics

Once more
Forever 'till the end of time
Forever found
Think what you may, but honey I ain't blind

Lost in the shuffle like a child all alone
Count my days for the end is my home
Once more
Forever 'till the end of time

Once more
I kill myself again
Once more
I'm a slave to the goddamn end

Lost in the shuffle like a child all alone
Counting my days for the end is my home
Once more
Forever 'till the end of time

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song's about grinding through life and pretty much accepting that it's not going to get much better for you. Kinda like "Yeah, sure, I'll get up and do this shit for you one more time...I'll eat shit and get shit on and fucking kill myself for you again...just don't think I don't know what's going on here. Am I ever gonna get a break? If not, then fuck it, I'll just keep movin' along until it's all over for me, then maybe I'll get some peace in the end". That's just the way I see it.

As for as the song itself, as much as I love Zakk, I don't really like how he took this slow, mellow little ballad with a beautiful acoustic solo and laid his "heavy metal" gravely vocals over it...I admit it's different and was kinda cool at first, but I can't help but think of how much better the song would have been if he had actually tried to sing it nicely. But hell, he's been doing this for years, so what do I know?
