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'Cause 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 sameI'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)'Cause 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 sameI still feel the heat
(Slowly fallin' from the sky)
And the taste of the kissing
Shattered by rain and the wild holy war
(Comin' tumblin' from behind)
I kick it up, I kick it downOh, 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 call that's the game and the pain stays the same
That's my real middle-name, it has always been the sameOh yeah, oh yeah
It's always been the same
It's always been the same
