[English]

The rings are ring out,

burned out,

cave in,

blackened,

to duck out.

I'm mixed now,

fleshed out.

There's light with no heat.

We cooled out,

it's cool out.

Life is precious.

We found out, we found out.

We found out.

Lost out,

beat up,

dancing, found there.

I found you somewhere about, right, right there.

Lost then,

beat up,

found it,

dancing.

I found you somewhere about there. Round there.

Lost in. Found out, turned out. I you turned out.

Found out.

You turned out. You turned out.

I turned up. You turned up. You too wild.

You too wild.

You too wild. I need you now.

Love you. Love you. Love you. I'm you.

Right now. Right now. Right now.

I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry when it's in a seat.

Don't fool yourself. Your eyes don't lie. You're much too good to be true.

Don't fire, fight. Yeah, I feel you burning. Everything's burning.

Don't fly too high. You wash my mouth. You're much too good to be true.

I'm just bad for you. I'm just bad, bad, bad for you.

Don't fool yourself. Your eyes don't lie. You're much too good to be true.

Don't fire, fight. Yeah, I feel you burning. Everything's burning.

Don't fly too high. Your wings, my mouth. You're much too good to be true.

I'm just bad for you. I'm just bad, bad, bad for you.

Lost out, beat up, dancing. I found you somewhere about there. Right there.

I was lost in. turned out. Burned up. You found me.

I was lost in. beat up. I was born blessed on a season. You found me.

I found me. Oh, Jesus. I was too wild. I was too wild. I was too wild. I was too wild.

And I need you now. Lost in.
