Hold on, hold on

Verse 2:

I told him I'm in no hurry

But if I broke her heart, then won't you tell her I'm sorry

And for once in my life I'm alone

And I gotta let her know

Just in time before I go

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

Well, I laughed but that didn't hurt

And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt

Now I'm crying, but deep down inside

Well, I did it to him

Now it's my turn to die

[repeat chorus]
