Your first love is totally wrong for you.Do you follow your heart?Or do you run away?JuniceWhat am I doing? He'll take one quick lookAnd wish he was anywhere else but hereI'm already ashamed of what I thinkHe will think of me, of the life I leadDamienYes, she is the fruit that willSustain me and yes, she bringsA rain that I know can chillBut it is a rain so sweet and singsA song my soul insistsThat I follow, if I would existAs more than I have ever, ever beenIf my mother calls it evil, then I embrace the sin
