1
Can we go back in time?
2
And never meet in our whole life?
3
Can you take back every lie?
4
While I erase you from my mind?
5
The answer's no, there's nowhere to go Your true colors show did not reach
6
the end of the road Now I'm driving off a cliff
7
Fuck you for everything you did I much rather not exist
8
Then get back together with you again You betrayed me as a lover, you betrayed me as a friend I hate your fucking guts,
9
I hope you'll always feel regret I hold your wall and snap your neck and die of island dead
10
I wish we had never met, I'll hate you till the day I'm dead
11
Put flowers on my tombstone Cause I'll hate you till the day I'm dead
12
Can we make time rewind?
13
And stop avoiding all the signs?
14
Do you remember what it was like?
15
When love was still alive?
16
The answer's no, and my heart broke The real you chose standing at the
17
end of the road Now driving off a cliff Fuck you for everything you did I'd much rather not exist
18
Then get back together with you again You betrayed me as a lover, you betrayed me as a friend I hate your fucking guts,
19
I hope you'll always feel regret I hope you fall and snap your neck and die of Ireland dead
20
I wish we had never met, I'll hate you till the day I'm dead
21
Put flowers on my tombstone Cause I'll hate you till the day I'm dead
22
Put flowers on my tombstone Cause I'll hate you till the day I'm dead

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
