Executioner
Love's Final Verdict: Executioner's Embrace
Lyrics
Don't wait up any longer
Expressing a decision not to return home.
I'm not coming home
Reiterating the absence from home.
You know you're always stronger
Emphasizing inner strength when alone.
When you're on your own
Highlighting independence as empowering.
You said the sweetest things
Recalling previous affectionate words spoken.
That's what you said
Repeating the sweet words expressed.
Here's a relationship
Describing the relationship with a metaphorical gun threat.
With a gun to its head
Portraying a troubled relationship.
I'm the executioner of love
Declaring oneself as the one ending the relationship.
Our love has been found guilty
Stating the relationship has been condemned.
Our love is turning bad
Acknowledging the deterioration of love.
Before I pass the sentence
Before making a decisive statement about the relationship.
Have you anything to add?
Inviting the other person to contribute to the situation.
It wasn't easy, but
Reflecting on the difficulty of the situation.
It wasn't fun
Acknowledging that the process wasn't enjoyable.
But when you start these things
Consequences of one's actions are realized.
See what you've done
Pointing out the impact of the person's actions.
You're the executioner of love
Turning the tables, declaring the speaker as the ender of love.
You're the executioner
Reiterating the role as the executioner of love.
Your childhood is over
Signifying the end of innocence or naivety.
There's nowhere you can hide
Repeatedly emphasizing the inability to escape.
There's nowhere you can hide
-There's nowhere you can hide
-It crawls towards you bleeding
Depicting a vulnerable, bleeding entity approaching.
Begging for a kiss
Requesting affection despite the apparent pain.
Even if you don't mean it
Acknowledging the insincerity of the requested kiss.
It's only just a kiss
Minimizing the significance of the kiss.
I know how Judas felt
Expressing empathy with the historical betrayer, Judas.
But he got paid
Highlighting the contrast in motivation, emphasizing no personal gain.
I'm doing this for free
Clarifying the selfless nature of the speaker's actions.
Just like live aid
Drawing a parallel with the charitable event, Live Aid.
I'm the executioner of love
Reiterating the role as the executioner of love.
I'm the executioner of love
-I'm the executioner of love
