パチンコがやめられない
トリプルファイヤー Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(4, 3, 2, 1)
Say hello to the girl that I am
You′re gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protected

There must be another way
′Cause I believe in takin' chances
But who am I to say what a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers

What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what′s right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can′t help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell 'em what I like, what I want, and what I don′t
But, every time I do, I stand corrected
Things that I've been told, I can′t believe
What I hear about the world
I realize I'm overprotected

There must be another way
′Cause I believe in takin' chances
But who am I to say what a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers

What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what′s right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can′t help the way I feel (help the way I feel)
But my life has been so overprotected

I need time
(Love)
I need space

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I want, want, what I′m gonna (I need)
Do about my destiny
(I say no, no)
Nobody's tellin′ me just what I wanna (do, do)
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

(Yeah, yeah)
What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don′t worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I don′t need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I want, want, what I′m gonna
Do about my destiny
(I say no, no)
Nobody's tellin me just what I wanna (do, do)
I′m so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what′s right?
(You just gotta do it your way)




I can't help the way I feel (oh, I can′t help the way I feel)
But my life has been so overprotected
