Lovekills

You arrived, so slyly, gradually invaded my psyche
Held me tight, promised to stay till the end of my life
The sleepless nights, with your company
Took me where nobody else could be
You said everything's lovelier in black and white
Drained the colors, though it wasn't right

When you arrive, my heart races, I'm dazed
Legs go weak, just want to stay in bed
If no one wants to listen to me, I turn you into a song

Can barely recall how it was before you came
A song in a higher key, maybe a painting in flame
You captured my soul, disrupted my core
I cry every night because the pain hurts like a thorn
Wrote thousands of letters, but tore them apart
No medicine can take you from my heart
Heard love kills, and I think I will be your victim

When you arrive, my heart races, I'm dazed
Legs go weak, just want to stay in bed
If no one wants to listen to me, I turn you into a song

When you arrive, my heart races, I'm dazed
Legs go weak, just want to stay in bed
If no one wants to listen to me, I turn you into a song
