[English]

Find love,

Go against the grain

Through washed out,

Memories

Before we hit rock bottom

Set free,

To find escape

Some rules,

Are meant to break

I know that it's wrong,

But the feeling is so amazing

Don't tell me it's wrong,

Cause the feeling is so amazing

Meet me,

In the darkest place

Among the monsters,

In empty space

You bring the river and I'll bring the fire

Passion keeps heating me up every time

Yeah, everybody says that you're a fool now

Everybody thinks you're gonna let them down

I know that it's wrong,

But the feeling is so amazing

Don't tell me it's wrong,

Cause the feeling is so amazing
