Death of Me
Citizen Soldier Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see it in your eyes
You'll take me dead or alive
You leave me worn and weak
When you come back for me
I will not put up a fight
Cause you take the life right out of me
I hate what you have made of me
You're gonna be the death of me
You get me so high you're like ecstasy
Take another hit cause I can′t get enough
Junkie for the pain I′m addicted to your love
You're my favorite disease
You′ve got me by the throat
And you just won't let go
Can′t say that I really mind
No, I would never try
To tame your darker side
It makes me feel so alive
Cause you take the life right out of me
You bury me til I can't breathe
I hate what you have made of me
You′re gonna be the death of me
You get me so high you're like ecstasy
Take another hit cause I can't get enough
Junkie for the pain I′m addicted to your love
You′re my favorite disease
You're gonna be the death of me
You get me so high you′re like ecstasy
You're gonna be the death of me
You get me so high you′re like ecstasy
You're gonna be the death of me
You get me so high you′re like ecstasy
Take another hit cause I can't get enough
Junkie for the pain I'm addicted to your love
You′re my favorite disease

Well this is because so many artists creat such trashy songs so the universe is trying to balance it out,
