Burn Me, Burn Yourself, Burn It All
Burn me, burn yourself, burn it all—
just one spark is enough—look, I am ready.
If you want to kiss, to caress, if you want to kill,
love must die for love,
only then is it truly love!
I took you inside me, in one breath,
my heart is imprisoned, my chest a cage.
Oh, we will both burn in this fire.
Just one spark is enough—look, I am ready.
Love must die for love,
only then is it truly love!
My God, my God!
I am walking straight into the fire.
With pain, oh Lord!
Because… I am growing through love.
Clothe me in your longing, in your love,
for lovelessness is harder than separation.
Hurt me, as much as you want,
because in your absence, or even your presence—it’s not enough,
not enough anymore.
So burn me, burn yourself, burn it all!
