From Bankrupt!2013

Written by Christian Mazzalai

Lyrics

Entertainment

Headline from this day on Why you keep pretending that you wanna let go? Do do you wanna let go? Loud volume turn to low low low low low low What you want and what you do to me I'll take the trouble that you have in mind Entertainment Show them what you do with me

When everyone here knows better What I once refused to be Is everything they long together I'd rather be alone I love, I love, I love, I notice I heard it all before I died Before I knew you Once upon a time would take too long, long, long, long, long, long

What you want and what you do to me I'll take the trouble that you have in my mind Entertainment Show them what you do with me When everyone here knows better What I once refused to be Is everything they long together I'd rather be alone
