Lyrics & Translation
You've come from far away
You looked for me somewhere and got lost
Then you crossed my way
And you're wondering
What will happen now, to you?
So listen
I suck the blood of my neighbor
I sow death and storm
I am vengeance and hatred
And I go wherever the wind takes me
I seek the heart of my lover
To sink my teeth in
Come on, tremble
Look into my eyes
I know you're afraid inside
Come on, tell me
Even if life separates us
You can see me in the dark
And maybe tonight
I’ll take you to another life
Up there beneath the stars
From another galaxy
She chose death
To keep love alive
She chose death
She chose death
I bleed and keep sowing until dawn, again and again
Deadly kisses under the Moon
To carry off the bodies
I am the ghost who sees you
And pulls you to the other side of life
Which you renounce
To join me here
But tell me why
Behind me, I drag death?
Love, I know I’m wrong
To make you do this sacrifice
Join me in the abyss
You will become my accomplice
Because I suck (she chose death)
The blood of my neighbor (she chose death)
Oh yes, I suck it (she chose death)
The blood of my neighbor (she chose death)
(She chose death)
(She chose death)
Between life and love
She chose death forever
Between life and love
She chose death forever
Between life and love
She chose death forever (she chose death)
