context. you have to take the line in context of the song:
The end of the world's in front of me.
Hard to believe all I see.
It comes so close but pulls away
To let me stay another day.
It's one chance in your lifetime,
But it won't be the last time.
It seems there's always the next hill to climb.
And you know there's a lifetime.
The things that I see never end,
Tricking my mind to just pretend.
I understand what's happening
When others doubt you still believe.
It's one chance in your lifetime,
But it won't be the last time.
I swear there's always the next hill to climb.
And you know there's a lifetime.
Changing what I once thought.
Letting go of what I once fought (what I once fought).
There's a life that you need to find.
All that surfaced has changed my mind.
The end of the world's in front of me,
Hard to believe all I see.
It's one chance in your lifetime,
But it won't be the last time.
I swear there's always a next hill to climb
And you know there's a lifetime.

anyway. it DOES make sense.
some things FEEL like they are once in a lifetime chances, like getting a record deal... or falling in love... or things like that. but nothing is ever really once in a lifetime because you don't know what it going to be waiting for you at the top of that next hill or on the other side of the hill.
(read the next line of the chorus.)
It's one chance in your lifetime,

And you know there's a lifetime.
the song is a reassuring, uplifting song. saying yes, it feels like it is the end of the world and this is a chance in a lifetime, but that doesn't mean it is the chance for you or that won't happen again. because it might.

any other examples? since you got that one from the anti-tony community?
