He was just a boy from Knoll
Who enjoyed some rock and roll
Inside a deserted cellar, one day
He found he could sing and play
He turned famous as no one has ever seen
Became a rock star at nineteen
Then a lot of money, drugs, and sex
Appeared and made his life more complex
Could it be forever?
If all is meant to end
He might have been clever
But his career flew as sand
Could it be forever?
Nothing left in his hands
Could it be forever?
Since all songs must to end
As a sinner and a saint
He was cover of the Rolling Stone
They threw him like a dice
In the end, he stood alone
(He wrote music with imagination
Creating in us a brand new sensation
A house not meant to stand
A name stronger than his band
Fame becomes a burden
When the entire world stares at you
Has tried to hide behind the curtain
That's what all of them do too)
He sang to fifty thousand and more
His voice remains the same as before
While barefoot onstage
He lived life's storm with rage
Could it be forever?
If all is meant to end
He might have been clever
But his career flew as sand
Could it be forever?
Nothing left in his hands
Could it be forever?
Since all songs must to end
A boy once so ambitious
A bad behavior, very suspicious
He’s was a free-born man
That’s the reason why he ran
He’s gone, but we don’t know how
Where could he be right now?
Ever since, he’s on his own
But his name stills known
How many stars are fallen?
How many histories were written?
They don’t talk too much about it
It’s not worth to bring it
He has learned how to lose
And also how to win
There ain't no choose
The world is something he was in
Unpredictable, unforgettable
They can still remember his lyrics
Incomparable, unstoppable
And also the reviews of bad critics
Then came the time to slow down
He was tired of play and tired of parties
He wasn't young anymore
Life’s trying to turn off his last lights
The very last studio work was released
When he wasn’t around anymore
He left one legacy of living so pleasantly
And taking it dangerously
Life’s trying to turn off his last lights
