Lyrics
If my love could kill, if my love could kill
If I had the power for my love to be destructive, causing harm or demise
I would kill this, I would kill this
I would use that power to end this situation
Slayer of wonder, slayer of words
Referring to love as a force that eliminates amazement, perhaps suggesting it's stifling
Murderer of poets, murderer of songs
Love as something that destroys creativity and artistic expression
Who robbed me of your memory
Someone or something has taken away the memory associated with the person the singer loves
Robbed me of your time
This entity or circumstance has also stolen the time that could have been shared with the loved one
Made her way into the symphony
Referring to the intrusion of something negative or unwanted into the beautiful symphony of the loved one's mind
Of your beautiful mind, of your beautiful mind
Again, highlighting the beauty and richness of the loved one's mind that has been affected
If my love could kill, if my love could kill
Reiteration of the desire for the power to end this situation through the force of love
I would kill this, I would kill this
Continuing the expression of using love as a force to eliminate the negative impacts
Destroyer of brilliance, destroyer of hope
Characterizing love as something that destructs brilliance and extinguishes hope
Invader of skin, invader of bone
Love portrayed as an invader, disrupting the core (skin and bone) of the person being loved
Who robbed me of your memory
Reiterating the loss of memory associated with the loved one
Robbed me of your time
Continuing the theme of time stolen or lost due to some external factor
Made her way into the symphony
Again, describing the intrusion into the beautiful symphony of the loved one's mind
Of your beautiful mind, of your beautiful mind
Emphasizing the beauty and value of the loved one's mind despite the intrusion
If my love could kill, if my love could kill
Repetition of the desire to use love as a force to end this negative impact
I would kill this, I would kill this
Continuing the expression of using love to terminate the negative influences
I would kill this, I would kill this
Reiteration of the desire to end this situation through the power of love
If my love could kill, if my love could kill
Reiteration of the wish for love to have the power to resolve this situation
If my love could kill, if my love could kill
