Semplice Lyrics in English Elodie

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Semplice by Elodie from Italian to English.
It's not love when it's demanded
When the heart is cold and defends itself
Impatient like a taut thread
It takes, wants but never loves
I don't like playing with fire anymore
The solution is in your hands
Silence kills me, drives me crazy
Simple
Living and laughing like you
As if you were already far away from me
As if you had never been an accomplice
Guilty and absolved
It's easy for you to always make the rules
And even if I'd like to do without you
I love you and you know it
How do you, how do you not understand
There's no love when we give up
When tolerating each other is enough
When a kiss now tastes like nothing
When even kindness is indifferent
Simple
Living and laughing like you
As if you were already far away from me
As if you had never been an accomplice
Guilty and absolved
It's easy for you to always make the rules
And even if I'd like to do without you
I love you and you know it
How do you, how do you not understand
Every day you take is a part of me
But now it's too late to try to save myself
Simple
Laughing and laughing like you
As if you were already far away from me
As if you had never been an accomplice
Guilty and absolved
It's easy for you to always make the rules
And even if I'd like to do without you
I love you and you know it
How do you, how do you not understand
So simple
So simple
How do you, how do you not understand
