Komm, süsser Tod



I know, I know I've let you down 
I've been a fool to myself 
I thought that I could 
live for no one else 
But now through all the hurt & pain 

It's time for me to respect 
the ones you love 
mean more than anything 

So with sadness in my heart 
I feel the best thing I could do 
is end it all 
and leave forever 

What's done is done it feels so bad 
what once was happy now is sad 
I'll never love again 
my world is ending 

I wish that I could turn back time 
cause now the guilt is all mine 
can't live without 
the trust from those you love 
I know we can't forget the past 
you can't forget love & pride 
because of that, it's killing me inside 

It all returns to nothing, it all comes 
tumbling down, tumbling down, 
tumbling down 
It all returns to nothing, I just keep 
letting me down, letting me down, 
letting me down

In my heart of hearts 
I know that I called never love again 
I've lost everything 
everything 
everything that matters to me, matters 
in this world 


It's highly unusual for me to post song lyrics, as I pretty much prefer to post my own thoughts, but I have to admit that I'm amazed by this song's emotional duality. It's lyrics are so sad, yet by listening to it and singing along somehow it makes me feel happy. It's a marvelous example how human being's purest emotions are intertwined with each other, how they can become the same thing, it all depends on how we choose to express them. Which makes me wonder...

If only we could take off all our masks; if only we weren't afraid of being who we are, and facing our reality as it is. If we could accept the past, and then let it rest in peace, and dream about the future, but not be scared. If instead or running away from what haunts us, we could think of ways to make it better.

If only we could understand each other, love each other, trust each other. If we could die and be born again, and make good to all the people that we wronged, and leave all the guilt and regrets behind. If we could change right now, instead of waiting for some magical rebirth to make things better. If we could turn back time, what would we do that we're incapable of doing now?

Hello again! ^_^

First, I've listened to the song, and it's really sad. :(

However, the way you think makes me feel better. All the people make mistakes, but we try to forget them. I must say that I really liked your comment.

Greetings from Spain. :)

PD: Forgive me if my english is bad. I'm not used to write comments in English. :)

Hola!

Si es triste pero de alguna manera tambien es alegre, tal vez en un sentido muy melancolico, totalmente carente de esperanza, no espera nada, no quiere nada,no pide nada, solo quiere redimirse y obtener paz.

A la fecha la escucho un par de veces al dia por lo menos, es tan hermosa. Y no te preocupes por el ingles, es mi segunda lengua despues de todo. Viva el español :)
