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
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!
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
It has always been the same
It has always been the same
