Below, I translated the lyrics of the song True Love Is Violent by Allie X from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
The surface of the water is serene
The surface of the water is serene
But what goes on below?
But what happens below?
Hungry current sucking at your feet
Hungry current sucking at your feet
It won't let go
It won't let go
Tossed 'til we capsized
Tossed 'til we capsized
Battered and bruised
Battered and bruised
Say it's the last time
Say it's the last time
We know the truth
We know the truth
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
But hell is ours to face
But hell is ours to face
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt
Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt
Pollute to purify
Pollute to purify
Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts
Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts
My mouth is dry
My mouth is dry
Tossed 'til we capsized
Tossed 'til we capsized
Battered and bruised
Battered and bruised
Say it's the last time
Say it's the last time
We know the truth
We know the truth
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
But hell is ours to face
But hell is ours to face
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
After the storm
After the storm
After the rain
After the rain
I'm born again
I'm born again
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Don't know what is right until it's wrong
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
Heaven could fall and angels swarm
But hell is ours to face
But hell is ours to face
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
True love is violent
