Words Of Wisdom
Flames To Burn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me the truth and tell me the lies
So darling please tell me why!
You lie in my face
It's not my disgrace.
It"s too hard to know
I need you come on!

If a confident person
Say you're not enough
Does it hurt you so much
Why do you give a fuck?
Fuck
Oh fuck!

So.
For a minute please come close
You need only one thing to know
Be good for yourself
Not for someone else
That's how can survive the hell!

So.
For a minute please come close
You need only one thing to know
Be good for yourself
Not for someone else
That's how can survive the hell!

Oh fuck!

You mean a lot to me
But it hurt to know
That you don't trust me
Enough to tell the truth

You mean a lot to me
But it hurt to know
That you don't trust me
Enough to tell the truth
Yeah! So!

So.
For a minute please come close
You need only one thing to know
Be good for yourself
Not for someone else
That's how can survive the hell!

So.
For a minute please come close
You need only one thing to know
Be good for yourself
Not for someone else
That's how can survive the hell!
Never give up your life and everythin'!
Oh!




Oh no!
Never no!
