You bruise so easily love Our heart's racing again Once the bloom leaves the rose All that's left is regret and sorrow Don't be a stranger Misanthrope Don't take my hand If you know you'll never love again It's the death of romance The death of romance The death of romance It's the death of romance The rope's too tight around my hands I don't want to understand Obscured by light, a stain inside Even your tattooed cross Is too heavy to bear Angels sing that closing hymn to me Can't you hear Those angels sing the closing hymn to me It's the death of romance The death of romance The death of romance It's the death of romance It's the death of you and me It's not the end you see Well patience got to pay The price tonight It's the death of romance Death of romance
