Malacca (Malay: Melaka), (dubbed The Historic State or Negeri Bersejarah among locals) is the third smallest Malaysian state, after Perlis and Penang. It is located in the southern region of the Malay Peninsula, on the Straits of Malacca. It borders Negeri Sembilan to the north and the state of Johor to the south. The capital is Malacca City, which is 148 km south east of Malaysia's capital city Kuala Lumpur, 235 km north west to Johor's largest city Johor Bahru and 95 km north west to Johor's second largest city Batu Pahat. This historical city centre has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 7 July 2008.
Although it was the location of one of the earliest Malay sultanates, the monarchy was abolished when the Portuguese conquered it in 1511. The Yang di-Pertua Negeri or Governor, rather than a Sultan, acts as the head of state now.
Before the arrival of the first Sultan, Malacca was a fishing village inhabited by local Malays. Malacca was founded by Parameswara, also called Iskandar Shah or Sri Majara, the last Raja of Singapura (present day Singapore) following a Majapahit attack in 1377. He found his way to Malacca around 1400 where he found a good port—it was accessible in all seasons and on the strategically located narrowest point of the Malacca Straits.

Nothing can stop you
Nothing can break you now
This is'ness has put you out of business
Bought and sold me
I'm lonely
I will admit I'm lonely
Just keep on walking
Act like you don't know me
Disown me
Go ahead disown me
It doesn't really matter
At all
Nothing seems to matter
Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can break you
Nothing can take you now
Nothing at all
Let me down easy
Speak softly
Let me down gently
I realize it must be
Disorientating
What was I
What was I saying
Doesn't really matter
Anymore
Nothing seems to matter
Nothing at all
Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can take you
Nothing can break your heart
Nothing at all
Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can take you
Nothing can break your heart
Nothing at all
This is a matter
This is a matter
This is a matter
This is a matter
Nothing can wreck me
Nothing can take me down
