Consider this: the true Meaning of Love - Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows (永恒沉睡)

Can I trust you mortal boy

You say you love me oh sure you do

But what exactly does this affirmation mean

I do not have the slightest notion

No idea of what you understand by "love"

And other terms as worn-out

Such as this old song and dance

You call romance

Quite different flowers grow indeed

In my small semantic garden

So let us see if your good vow

Is more than just some chemical imbalance

Is it worth the air you breathe

Or will it be just another waste of time with you

What I call "Love precious and true"

Would you refer to this as sin

Or crime and all that silly crap

Now let me put you to the test:

How often have I heard these words:

"I love you so much dearest dear

That I would die for you right now right here "

Sure doing this they're sitting pretty

But I say: piss on it

Because this way is far too easy

But: do you also have the strength

To be there for me till the end

Would you have courage live for me

Respect my wishes my decree

Would you defend me against the world

Fight the doctors playing God

Slap your priests if they came near

Or anyone who interferes

Is the version of your Love as true

That you would use all means within your power

Just to meet the urgent plea

That solemn final wish for dying

Of a helpless her or him

Who lies in pain who's suffering

Now only begging for the end

Is your "Love" that of a true friend

If I lay crying in my bed

Waiting no longing for the end

If I decide my time has come

Would you then be that trustful one

To guard this chamber break this shell

And free me from this living hell

By making sure my death is swift

Would you grant me that sacred gift

Now that you've heard it let me know:

Are you then willing to let go

Say: would you do all this for me

Would you respect my wishes my dignity

Because that's what LOVE means to me
