Lyrics and translation
Original
I don't know how we got here
I think we might be sleeping
I think we might be walking
To the death of love (to death)
It never seemed so hard
To say what you really mean
When everything you have seen
Is from above (from above)
It's the death of love (death of, that's the death of love)
If we're on an island all the time
And it's yours, and it is mine
It's death, no turning (back)
Death of love
Is there no good faith?
Is our love misplaced?
I don't know how we got here
Everything feels different
People are losing interest
In the best of love
It never seemed so hard
To wake up from your dream
When everything you have seen
Is from above (from above)
It's the death of love (death of)
If we're on an island all the time
And it's yours, and it is mine
It's the death of love
Don't leave me behind
Over one bad hour
Sometimes we come back empty-handed
Like bees from plastic flowers
We can't follow you where you're going
We can't follow you where you're going
We can't follow you where you're planning to go
To the death of love
I think we might be sleeping
I think we might be walking
To the-
To the death of love
