Whether we like it or not, they say we can love who we trust, but what is love without loss? Two hearts without cure and devotion, what are feelings without emotions? I'm going in for the kill. I'm doing it for a thrill. I'm hoping you'll understand, and I let go of my hand. I'm going in for the kill. I'm doing it for a thrill. I'm hoping you'll understand, and I let go of my hand. They'll be withered by the sun. Full stops and exclamation marks. My words stumble before I start. How far can you send emotions? Can this bridge cross the ocean? I'm going in for the kill. I'm doing it for a thrill. I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand. I'm going in for the kill. I'm doing it for a thrill. Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand.
I'm going in for the kill. I'm doing it for a thrill. Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand and not let go of my hand.
