Song Lyrics:
Come, as you are, as you were, as I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old memoria

Memoria (x3)

Come, dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach, as I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria

Memoria (x3)

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (x2)

Memoria (x4)
And I don't have a gun

Well I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (x4)

Memoria (x2)
