Genesis
THE END OF MELANCHOLY Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Born in the pain, blood and fear new star
Your first breath will be sweet
And your first step will inspire
Choose your life by yourself
Cast doubt on everything

Love me - then hate me
Praise me - then humiliate me

In the darkest night when your tears will dry from the light of the moon
She'll embrace you

Love me - then hate me
Praise me - then humiliate me

Feel her kiss - a kiss of life

Arise and go - taste the light and the dark
Kiss of life and death
