The cupids bow and arrow concept is genius. Getting high on love, even when you know the relationship is not good for you, you still want the feeling of intense love, even if your life depends on it.
Since the day I left you I hear your voice in every sound
Since the day I left you I see your face in every crowd
It won't go away
But every time I feel you near
I close my eyes and turn to stone
Cause now the only thing I fear
Is seeing you’re better off alone
Yeah
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
With the weight of the world upon me I can’t hold my head up high
So if you see me on the street turn away or walk on by
Cause after the beauty we’ve destroyed
I’m cascading through the void
I know in time my heart will mend
I don’t care if I never see you again
Yeah
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
Girl, I told you
After all we’ve been through
I don't wanna be by myself
Girl, I told you
That it would tear me in two
If I see you with someone else
Cut out my eyes, And leave me blind
Cut out my eyes, And leave me blind
Cut out my eyes, And leave me blind
He loved her. She loved him. That was the beginning of a love which became some sort of addiction. But the same thirst for love which brought them together can also kill...cause one day you may wake up and find out something has changed forever...and you try to keep the pieces together but you just can't get back to the way it was...suddenly passion and longing turn into misunderstanding and despair..and you would have preferred to remain blind than living the consequences of what was supposed to be a never ending love...
Falling in love at the wrong time, with the wrong person ( cheating cupid), will eventually end up consuming you and killing you. This is the message i seem to be getting from this video, such a great song!
Funny how I explained the concept behind the video to my girl whilst we were watching this together and she didn't understood what's happening.... never had a clue at that moment that she will leave me after a couple of months... ironic, isn't it...
