Have you ever thought, thought your heart would break? Wished you could cut open your chest tear it out to stop the pain? Why don´t you riot like everyone else/ I don´t care Life´s too long You can have any man you want/ I want him/ except him Always suspected the world didn´t smell of fresh paint and flower/ smells of piss and human sweat
