Analysis of He is not your rival

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



After these years
I know you're worth my trust
But after few days
It turned into dust

After these years
I expected some love
But after few days
I know it couldn't be drove

After these years
My heart felt great
But after few days
I couldn't more wait

After these years
One love was fitting
But after few days
Another was quiting

After these years
I know you're the one
But after few days
Another should get down

After these years
I haven't really changed
But after few days
He'll want to avenge
