Once I Believed Lyrics - Mekong Delta

Here's a weird tale of madness 

About what happened to me 

I led a life full of luxury 

Till I broke down on my knees 

Cadillacs and furcoats 

A mansion by the sea 

Then lady luck walked away 

Left me in misery 

Once I Believed 

This couldn't happen to me 

But now 

But now 

Everything has changed 

A six inch blade cut through my hand 

On that fatal day 

Then the doctor told me 

Slow death'd come my way 

My woman went away people ignoring me 

Razorblades in my cornbread 

The folks in town wished I was dead 

Once I Believed 

This couldn't happen to me 

But now 

But now 

Everything has changed 

Go away 

We don't want you around 

In this town 

Don't want you 

Don't want you... 

What they say 

They don't want me around 

In this town 

Don't want me 

Don't want me...
