Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Ah, love suicide is killing me,
You’re getting into my head like a guillotine,
You’ve got me grasping for air in your
And now you’re saying some things
How the hell I’m cut up between?
I forgot, trying not to intervene,
Putting up a fight like it ain’t a thing to me!
I swear it’s gotta be the worst position to be in, be in,
I guess you thought like you’ve been ignored,
And the ? turning to a jigsaw,
Cause when you’re down you gotta let
And we just can’t seem to find time to sit and talk,
I know she is in shock!
Ah, what happens when the hourglass of love runs out?
Under one roof and one house,
And everything becomes so cold,
Baby, that’s the only thing I wanna know!
Tell me the reason why
You commit a love suicide
I think you want our love to die
You did it on purpose
I'm all out of tears
Tell me get outta here
You made it very clear
You did it on purpose
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
I feel like I’m about to break down,
Why you’re acting like kid up on the playground?
If you gonna sat on your mind, why don’t you let it out?
So the end of us is coming any day now, any day!
I thought we’d never separate,
I could be the.. but no defeated on the…
You know is probably for the best, anyway,
Cause my suspicions now…
What happens when the hourglass of love runs out?
Under one roof and one house,
And everything becomes so cold,
Baby, that’s the only thing I wanna know!
Tell me the reason why
You committed a love suicide
I think you want our love to die
You did it on purpose
I'm all out of tears
Time to get outta here
You made it very clear
You did it on purpose, purpose
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Why would you hurt us?
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Our love suicide
Does it make you happy to see me down?
Does it make your day to see me drown?
I guess I'm your entertainment
You don't know what you wasted
But soon you will see!
What happens when the hourglass of love runs out?
Under one roof and one house,
And everything becomes so cold,
Baby, that’s the only thing I wanna know!
Tell me the reason why
You committed a love suicide
I think you want our love to die
You did it on purpose!
I'm all out of tears
Time to get outta here
You made it very clear
You did it on purpose, purpose!
You did it on purpose, purpose!
You made me feel worthless, worthless
Why would you hurt us, hurt us!
You did it on purpose, purpose!
You did it on purpose, purpose!
You made me feel worthless, worthless
Why would you hurt us, hurt us!
What happens when the hourglass of love runs out?
Under one roof and one house,
And everything becomes so cold!
The song “Love Suicide” by Tinie Tempah ft. Ester Dean is an emotional track about a couple whose love is falling apart. The lyrics take a metaphorical approach as the destructive nature of their relationship is likened to a “love suicide”. The chorus repeats the phrase “Our love suicide” which underscores the finality and irreversibility of their separation. The first verse describes the singer's frustration with his lover who is sending mixed signals and playing mind games with him. The relationship appears to be on a downward spiral, with the couple struggling to communicate effectively and resolve their issues. The second verse is more introspective and sees the singer reflecting on the inevitability of their breakup. He realizes that perhaps it was for the best, and the fact that they can't seem to fix it means that they are not right for each other.
The song expresses a sense of sadness and regret, with the singer wondering why his lover has chosen to hurt him in such a way. There is a sense of bitterness and resentment towards the end. The line “Does it make you happy to see me down” reflects the singer's frustration with his lover who appears to be enjoying her power over him. The track ends on a somber note where the singer has come to terms with the fact that their love has died.
Overall, the song “Love Suicide” is a powerful track that skillfully uses metaphors and emotional lyrics to convey the pain and sadness of a failing relationship. It's a relatable experience that many people go through at least once in their lifetime.
