Too Much Love Kills

I’d readily plunge off the highest of the roofs
Ankles shackled by the heaviest stones
Awash with this love that made me proud
(Shall you raise your eyes upon me?)
I would readily jump into the two rivers
That my hollow cheeks carried along for you
Drowned into the tears that dampen my voice
Shall you concede me some of your air?
Too much love kills
(May the sky secure me a wretched asylum)
If you signal me, I’ll come
I’d readily severe legs and arms
To offer the world my stone bust
Once petrified in the winter garden
(Will you have mercy on my O’ so cold body?)
I’d readily burn in the blazes of hell
That you left all around me
If the devil ever bit my fingers
(Would you wage a righteous war against him?)
Too much love kills
(May the sky hold for me a wretched asylum)
If you signal me, I’ll come
Too much love kills
May the sky hold for me a place where I’ll be quiet
If you refuse me too much love
I am strong to die a hundred times
A wrath of a thousand gods shan’t prevent me
If you come close, listen deep within me
My heart is Earth prompt to burst
Too much love kills…
Too much love kills
(May the sky hold for me a wretched asylum)
If you signal me, I’ll come
Too much love kills
May the sky hold for me a place where I shall be quiet
If you refuse too much love
I’ll come… Too much love…
