Did I ever say: I love you?
I guess now's the time
Mine's run out in the afterglow
And I'm terrible at goodbyes
The clock up above counts down
To a swift flash of the blade
When you speak of me
Don't remember me this way

I can hear them coming for me
Like dogs let off their leash
Hold me in your embrace
Before death takes me away
And as the ending becomes clearer
The knife sharpens against the grain
Promise when you speak of me
Say: It was love that killed the Queen
It was love that killed the

The longing stare, the butcher's knife
A final song, a final dance
What was it the Reaper said?
My limbo's waiting
Is there a death or an afterlife?
Will I get the abyss, or the blinding light?
I have so many questions and little time
Well, hold my hand, I'm terrified

Because since these worlds collided
Life and death is no more divided
So, when the blood flows from my veins
Do I dissipate, or is it undecided?

I tear through them all
Like a scream from the maw
I can hear the pain in your voice
We're out of time, my death is forced
And as the ending becomes clearer
My sacrifice
My sacrifice
Promise when you speak of me
Say: It was love
That killed the

Do I stay, or do I go?
Promise you won't leave me alone
I can see it in your eyes
The pain of the unknown
Do I stay or do I go?
Promise you won't leave me alone
Do I stay or do I go?

Promise you won't leave me alone
An angel's hands drives to the hilt
Now death won't leave me alone
And as the ending becomes clearer
The blade cuts in so deep
Oh, promise when you speak of me
Say: It was love that killed the Queen

Did I ever say: I love you?
