Kerosene Heart

live for me?

You know it's true what they say
It's easy to die for someone
But it's difficult to live for them

That's how I look at it, how I measure my love for you.

Would I lie for you?

Of course you mean that much to me. Of course I would lie, I would say anything that you want.

Would I kill for you?

Of course you mean that much to me. Of course I would kill, I would take anyone's life you asked for me to.

Would I die for you?

Of course you mean that much to me. Of course I would die, be it at your hands or another, just say the word.

Would I live for you?

Of...
Of course?
Of course you mean a lot to me...
Of course I would do anything for you
Yet...
To live for someone is hard
No, it's downright impossible
To love you is to take your pain and make it mine.
To love you is to see how imperfect you are and love you for it.
To love you is to see myself as better, see me how you would.
But... I'm not good... I would lie, kill, and die for you.
I would sin and go to hell without a second thought.
How could I possibly be good?
What am I gonna see when I look into your eyes?
How could I live for you... If I'm just meant to be used.
But...
I love you,
Enough to be your tool.

I can lie for you.

I will kill for you.

And

So I have to die for you.

Because there is no life for someone like me.
