Your Love Is Killing Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's understood
You'll be a man
By the time I'll see you
We've been through better days
And you've tasted all my pain
Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
Your love is killing me
Try to tell you this when I'm sober
How I feel about loving you
Try to remember all the turn of events
Being led by our own fantasies
Fantasies!
Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk all over me
You tell me that you like it
When our minds become diseased
There he let it go
His temper, standing there
See her with his gun and he
Steals love so he can feel alive
Everyone's knees knocking at the fear of love
Taste blood
Everybody needs to feel
Break my legs so I won't run to you
Steal my soul so I am one to you
From a distance I am on to you
But I'll stab my eyes out so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
You love me as you torture me
You tell me that you like it
But I won't let you see
All that I can do is what I can
With this pain you've given me
With this pain you've given me
Your love is killing me
