New Poetry: Unveiling the Dark Depths of Love
Lyrics
I used to think that you were pure
I used to believe that you were genuine and untainted.
But now I see that you're just empty
Now I realize that you are devoid of substance or sincerity.
Oh, lie to me, it's the new poetry
Deception towards me is considered a form of artistic expression, a new way of communication.
It's the language that we speak
This deceptive language has become the norm in our interactions.
I've become numb
I have lost my ability to feel emotions or respond emotionally.
I've become numb
Repetition for emphasis, emphasizing the emotional numbness.
You know I love you, but you might be the death of me
Expressing love, but acknowledging the potential harm or danger in the relationship.
Hold me down, suffocating, please let me breathe
A plea for release from a suffocating or oppressive situation.
Kiss kiss, lights out, I've got to, we've got to,
Describing a moment of intimacy or connection, possibly with a sense of urgency.
You know I loved you but you're gonna be the death of me
Reiteration of love with a recognition of its potential negative consequences.
I've got to tear away from you
An acknowledgment of the need to distance oneself from a harmful influence.
I left you bruised, you left me broken
Both parties have experienced harm in the relationship.
Oh, don't try to speak, if you do one thing for me
Asking the other person to remain silent as a favor.
Make yourself numb
Advising to become emotionally detached or unresponsive.
Just make yourself numb
Repetition for emphasis, underlining the need to be emotionally numb.
You know I love you, but you might be the death of me
Reiteration of love with an awareness of potential harm.
Hold me down, suffocating, please let me breathe
A plea for relief from a suffocating or oppressive situation, echoing previous sentiments.
Kiss kiss, lights out, I've got to, we've got to,
Repeating a moment of intimacy with urgency, mirroring line 10.
You know I loved you but you're gonna be the death of me
Repeated acknowledgment of love with an understanding of its potential consequences.
You know I love you, but you might be the death of me
Reiteration of love with an awareness of potential harm, similar to lines 8 and 19.
Hold me down, suffocating, please let me breathe
A plea for release from a suffocating or oppressive situation, echoing lines 9 and 20.
Kiss kiss, lights out, I've got to, we've got to,
Repeating a moment of intimacy with urgency, similar to lines 10 and 21.
You know I loved you but you're gonna
Repeated acknowledgment of love with an understanding of its potential consequences, similar to lines 11 and 22.
You know I love you, you might be me the death of me
Reiterating love with a recognition of its potential negative consequences.
Might be the death of me
Repeating the idea that the person might be the cause of the speaker's demise.
Might be the death of meI used to think that you were pure
Repeating the ominous idea that the person might be the cause of the speaker's death.
