And I relate to my best friend, she would advice me 
She broke our code and she put on her jacket 
Now it scares me because she's really gone 

And I related my best friend, do you remember? 
She was so young and now that we're burning 
They're scared because she's really gone 

And if it's going to be my destiny 
I don't want to wait till it comes to me 
I will work so hard my hands will hurt 
I will pay for my sins, if so in hell 

Serenade, serenade me 
They say and dry but I'm just sick 
Serenade, serenade me 
They say I'm cold but I'm just sick
