Lyrics
I was invincible
I was incredible
Romeo breaking girls hearts.
And I'd live forever
It would only get better
K new someday I'd be a star.
My My Time Flies
My My
Time Flies
And I stole a girl
Nearly ruined my world
Could have killed her it's true I confess.
We were so high
No tears, no goodbyes
Only anger and my bitterness
My My Time Flies
My My
Time Flies
All the twists and the turns
The times I've been burned
By the fires that I started myself
I'm not totally clean
Do you know what I mean?
I've learned how to wash up myself
Sometimes I just need some help.
And I went to jail
I was lucky got bail
And my soul mate fell out of the clouds.
And I'm still alive
Look at me I survived
And I hope that my best friends are proud.
My My Time Flies
My My
Time Flies
My My Time Flies
My My
Time Flies Time Flies Time Flies Time Flies
All the twists and the turns, the times I've been burned
By the fires that I started myself.
All the twists and the turns, the times I've been burned.
