Quotes

• IT'S ALL TEARS (DROWN IN THIS LOVE):

Open Your arms

let me show You

what love can be like

it's all tears

and it will be

'til the end of Your time

come closer my love

will You let me tear

Your heart apart?

(now) all hope is gone

so drown in this love

I'm waiting for You

to drown in my love

so open Your arms

I'm waiting for You

to open Your arms

and drown in this love

so my love

Your laughter is finally

turning into tears

and You're begging for more

though the end is getting near

come closer my love

I'll violate You

in the most sensual way...

until You drown in this love
