Powerless
Sophy Rose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My heart belongs to Evil
My mind is now for sale
I made a deal with the Devil
You will not need to pray
If every lover would die for another I haven't planned to die
And every night my tears are falling down and left me dried
And bodies surround me
I'm feeling in extasy
Corpses all around me
And that's the price to pay to Love

Fill me with pain
And if it weren't for you
I'd be hopeless
I would be powerless
And cover me in shame
And if I got to be true
I'd be helpless
I would be powerless
In front of you

You, you, you

In front of you

You, you, you

You can retrace my story
And you would see only blood
But now I live in glory
Of red I make a flood

If every life is on the tip of a knife I have to dare
I got a pocket full of souls of men in despair

And guilt destroys me
I'm ripping myself apart

Sin is all around me
And that's the price to pay to Love

Fill me with pain
And if it weren't for you
I'd be hopeless

I would be powerless
And cover me in shame

And if I got to be true

I'd be helpless
I would be powerless

In front of you

You, you, you
In front of you

You, you, you

(Videte si est dolor sicut dolor meus
Videte si est dolor sicut dolor meus)

My soul is strong but my bones are weak
My heart's hard to tame, tell me what you think
How can we get along if we're like Fire and Sea?
And I'm almost yours and it feels like Heaven to me

Fill me with pain
Make me a redeemer too
'Cause I am hopeless
I am so powerless
And cover me in shame
Because I'm crazy for you
And I am helpless
I'm feeling powerless
And fill in my veins
Of all your poison I'm full
I'm just reckless
I am so powerless
No glory in chains
For I am a holy fool




Oh, my Goddess
I am so powerless in front of you
