Killer
ATB Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the loneliness
That's the killer

So you want
To be free?
To live your life
The way you want to be
Will you give
If we cry?
Will we live
Or will we die?

Tainted hearts
Heal with time
Shoot that love
So we can stop the end

Solitary brother
Is there still a part of you that wants to live?
Solitary sister
Is there still a part of you that wants to give?

If we try
And live your lives
The way you want to be
Yeah

Solitary brother
Is there still a part of you that wants to live?
Solitary sister
Is there still a part of you that wants to give? (x3)

Racism in among future kings can only lead to no good besides




All our sons and daughters already know how that feels
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

@@user-lk9un2ue3j adamski встретился с seal в 89 году и вдвоем чуть позже записали этот трек. в 90 году он вышел, в 91 его перепел джордж майкл, а через пару лет выпустил сингл под собственным именем. в этом нет ничего удивительного, просто договорились с лейблом за кругленькую сумму и процент от продаж. потом уже вышел ремикс от atb под собственным именем, как от джорджа майкла.
