Thread: Komm Susser Todd

These are actually lyrics from a song called Komm Susser Todd which translates as "Come Sweet Death" in German but it's a japanese song. I find that these lyrics along with the music of the song can take any day and completely obliterate it for me. But it means a lot to me and thought I'd share it. I think the only other person here who's heard it has been Jane. Tell me what you all think. Oh and if you want me to send you the song I'm sure I could get it to you.

I know, I know I've let you down,
I've been a fool to myself.
I thought that I could live for no one else,
But now, through all the hurt and pain,
It's time for me to respect.
The ones you love mean more than anything.

So with sadness in my heart,
I feel the best thing I could do,
Is end it all, and leave forever.
What's done is done, it feels so bad,
What once was happy now is sad.
I'll never love again.
My world is ending.

[Refrain] I wish that I could turn back time,
'Cause now the guilt is all mine.
Can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know we can't forget the past,
You can't forget love and pride.
Because of that, it's killing me inside.

It all returns to nothing,
It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.

It all returns to nothing,
I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

In my heart of hearts,
I know that I could never love again.
I've lost everything... Everything...
Everything that matters to me matters in this world.

[Refrain]

It all returns to nothing,
It just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.

It all returns to nothing,
I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

The craziest thing about this song is the melody.. its like all happy and then as you can read, the lyrics are SO NOT. Very strange song but I like it.
