[English]

Fool me for a second time

I guess the blame's all mine

And acting cool was just a state of mind

And so I say that I'm fine, but

And no, I never meant to feel this way, oh-woah

And now I'm waiting for the light to change, and then I'm gone, yeah

And maybe I can never make you stay, oh-woah

And now I'm waiting for the light to change, and then I'm gone

You said that you're always right

Put your foot on the gaslight

If reality's a state of mind, you say what you want

But I don't want to change mine

No, I never meant to feel this way, oh-woah

And now I'm waiting for the light to change, and then I'm gone, yeah

And maybe I can never make you stay, oh-woah

And now I'm waiting for the light to change, and then I'm gone

...

Name-drop

Even though you won't admit it, you're a fame-bot

Even though you can't commit, it doesn't change much

You're pushing all the limits of the tame drugs

I won't give up

Like I'm on an audition for the same love

That everyone is missing, it don't take much (Oh-woah)

...
