Once upon a time
We were all in this together,
Before I knew it
It was one-for-all and all-for-one.

Once upon a time
We sat happy and content,
Before I knew it
I cried myself to sleep.
   
Once upon a time
I dreamed about what would come,
Before I knew it
All my dreams were broken.

Once upon a time
We played together,
Before I knew it
I sat alone in the dark.

Once upon a time
Living mattered to me,
Before I knew it
A knife was the one way out.

Once upon a time
Depression wasn't real,
Before I knew it
Depression seemed too real.

Once upon a time
You called everyday,
Before I knew it
My phone read empty.

Once upon a time
We were deeply in love,
Before I knew it
I was nothing but a stranger.

Once upon a time, there was a happy ending.
Before I knew it, happy endings didn’t exist.
