[English]

I'm a fool

Fool for you

Been here before staring in your eyes

I can see through the lies and behind them

Promise ourselves it's different this time

Yeah we play with the fire till we burning

Yeah I see the white lines, the stop signs I

Know that I should know better, better, better

You play on my heart strings, No hard feelings

Tell me I should know better, better, better

Now I'm a fool

Fool for you

I'm a fool

Fool for you, Fool for you

I'm a fool

Fool for you

I'm a fool

Fool for you, Fool for you

Asleep or awake

Admit I stayed I

I don't know where to go

Don't know who I am

I'm losing my faith

Bend till I break I

I know I should've run

When I had the chance

Yeah I see the white lines, the stop signs I

Know that I should know better, better, better

You play on my heart strings, No hard feelings

Tell me I should know better, better, better

Now I'm a fool

Fool for you

I'm a fool

Fool for you, Fool for you

I'm a fool (fool)

Fool for you (for you)

I'm a fool

For you

I'm a fool

Fool for you
