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.
