Léon
Léon's Tragic Tale: Love, Loss, and Desperation
Lyrics
Amor
Expressing love or a romantic connection
You don't find me
Difficulty in being found or understood
I'm a reckless
Being daring or without caution
Are you knocking at the door?
Questioning someone's presence or intentions
You don't want to
Unwillingness to witness personal suffering
Watch me bleed
Suggesting vulnerability or pain
You won't find me at home
Absence from home or emotional unavailability
Why'd they kill me?
Questioning why someone would harm or betray
I didn't watch it
Claiming innocence in not observing a harmful act
I don't feel you so close
Feeling emotional distance
I'm a criminal
Acknowledging criminal behavior
You're a reckless
Labeling someone else as daring or without caution
Why don't you want me, Léon
Expressing desire for affection from Léon
Amor
Reiteration of love or romantic feelings
Everybody
Noticing the death of those around
Dies around me
Acceptance of death with grace
I can cry with dignity
Crying without losing self-respect
I'm a toy girl
Describing oneself as an object in someone's possession
In your court-yard
Being in someone's control or influence
You won't find me, Léon
Reiteration of unavailability for Léon
You can show your love, Léon
Encouraging Léon to express love
I can sleep with you, Léon
Willingness to be intimate with Léon
You can close your eyes, Léon
Suggesting trust or vulnerability by closing eyes
You can laugh with me, Léon
Inviting laughter as a form of connection with Léon
You can cry with me, Léon
Inviting shared emotions and vulnerability
Drink with me your milk, Léon
Suggesting a shared, intimate act
I can use your guns, Léon
Offering assistance or participation in potentially dangerous activities
I can grow your plant, Léon
Willingness to nurture or care for Léon's interests
Amor
Reiteration of love or romantic feelings
It's not a joke
Clarifying seriousness, not a jest
I want to kill'em
Expressing a desire to harm others
I'm not looking for God
Rejecting a spiritual quest or search for meaning
Léon
Addressing Léon as a daring or reckless individual
I'm a criminal
Acknowledging criminal behavior again
You're a reckless
Labeling Léon as daring or without caution
Why don't you want me, Léon
Expressing a longing for affection from Léon
They have killed you
Referencing the death of Léon
And now I'm alone
Expressing loneliness after Léon's death
This is from me, amor
Dedicating the message to love (amor)
