Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
My Papa told me to stay out of trouble: "When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!". I've learned that nothing really lasts forever I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal. They won't heal Cos everytime I seem to fall in love Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the heart but then I hit the wall Crash! Boom! Bang! That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same. I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew. My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow But I always did, and Lord, I still do I'm still breaking the rules {I kick it up} {I kick it down} Cos everytime I seem to fall in love Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the heart but then I hit the wall Crash! Boom! Bang! That's my real middle-name It has always been the same That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same. I still feel the heat {Slowly fallin' from the sky} And the taste of the kissing Shattered by rain {Comin' tumblin' from behind} And the wild holy war. {I kick it up} {I kick it down} And everytime I seem to fall in love Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the roses dying on the floor Crash! Boom! Bang! {Crash! Boom! Bang!} That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same. That's my real middle-name It has always been the same Oh yea, Oh yea, Oh yea Been the same, been the same It has always been the same It has always been the same
