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 every time 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 every time 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 every time I seem to fall in love / Crash! Boom! Bang! / I find the roses dying on the floor / Crash! Boom! Bang! / That's the tall, 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 Uh-huh / Been the same, been the same / It has always been the same.
