I fell in love,
now I talk too much,
I laugh too much,
I am too happy,
this is not me!
Do I have to pay a fee?
I bet someday I’ll have to pay, for all the love I gave away
And get nothing in exchange
Not even a few coins
Only a slap in the face
That I will have to embrace
Different languages and different fonts
There is this girl,
I don’t understand her
I don’t think it will ever occur
But I want to, I tried so many times
I will commit any crimes
For her, I will do anything
From a rope I will swing
If not, she notices me anytime soon
I’ll wait till full moon
I waved at her today
She sadly looked away
I tried explaining everything
But we do not speak the same
Even though I aim
