Mi spavento per aver svoltato per sbaglio in una strada sbagliata o per aver detto qualcosa di sbagliato.<\/p>\n<p>Ho paura di sbagliare, ma soprattutto ho paura di vivere.<\/p>\n<p>I was a challenger, an explorer, a wanderer, and it all got lost when I lost my hope in you. Actually, I didn\u2019t lose hope in you. I remember giving up on you. And I remember exactly when that happened.<\/p>\n<p>I was at an all-time low. I prayed my hardest and I believed you\u2019d get me out of there until I eventually stopped. I stopped praying and I stopped believing in you.<\/p>\n<p>E ho fatto tutto quello che tu dicevi di non fare. Volevo che ti sentissi come mi sentivo io. Da solo.
