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
