Odi Et Amo Lyrics

You told me that you loved me
And kissed me in the street
I felt your arms around me
Like ground beneath my feet

You promised me forever
That wouldn’t have to ask
Your poems were so clever
I never saw your mask

You gave your heart so freely
I could not even see
It wasn’t you, who smiled right back at me

Odi et amo, odi et amo (I hate and I love)
Meus carus hostilis (my beloved enemy)

I’m not afraid of darkness that walks the city streets
Betrayal is the one thing
That brings me to my knees
I thought you were an angel
My rescue from this hell
But the Devil was an actor
Who played his part too well

You vanished in the shadows And suddenly I knew
That I would give my life to be with you

Odi et amo, odi et amo
Meus carus hostilis
Odi et amo, Odi et amo
Ego exuro vobis (I burn for you)

I don’t mean to leave it up to fate
Love is just another side of hate
It’s flowing through my veins
It burns me from within
The line between the lover
And enemy’s grown thin

Too late for this sinner to be saved
Your heart is the mystery I craved
You’re pushing me too far
You’ve brought me to my knees
When pain becomes the pleasure
And torture feels like bliss

Odi et amo, odi et amo
Meus carus hostilis
Odi et amo, Odi et amo
Ego exuro vobis.
