About the Artist
Lyrics
I was born an April fool Full of gold to a brothel And saved all my sins! I don't care if you and I are naked bare And wrapped up in the sun All I need is one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one ... I don't know where I've been, what I've done I am the once now irreplaceable son whoaaaa! I'm antichrist in your home I'll come around this time to lay it sck from my soul Let me go And I have time, those blinking lights Controlled my sight and blinded me in spite And I waited here for you (here) I don't care, the salvaged prayer But a dent so big comes once a few years And again I'm left to wait for you And I don't know where I was going I tried again to break you down for everyone's know Crying, let me go back to my failures And come around this time to stop and finally let go Let me go! (Ooooh oooooh) Leaves are dead but I am here Waiting on another good year I hope we don't lose it all here I tried once, I tried twice and I'm done I am the once and irreplaceable son I've got that rock and that roll I've come around this time to set fire to your bone I tried once, I tried twice, I am done I am the once now and irreplaceable son I've got that rock and that roll I've come around this time to set fire to your homes And let you go!
