I HAVE TO STOP

You are standing in front of me

Again

Another night having you opposite me

And you promise me the truth

But I know that tomorrow

I will be bad again because of you

Another night having you opposite me

I ve promised myself that

Story of my Life

31/1/2011

Story of my life

When I was young

I sat beside an old man

He looked at me in my eyes

And with his deep voice told me

I lived till now son

Cause I never believed in a woman

I am alive son

Cause I never told a secret to a woman

Women young boy

Are here only to hurt you

To bleed you

To take everything from you

If you want to live like me

Keep me these words in mind

And have fun with them,

Just… Continue

Because you re wrong

When you think that there is only you.

Shut up, and learn

Learn that you don’t look better

When you re talking about you

Learn baby

That you don… Continue
