give up the things you love for love.

"You are every part of my beating heart, You are the blood within me. My love outweighs my lust for you, my head outweighs my heart.
I am with you through eternity, until my blood stops pumping. 'Cos without you rushing through my veins, there is no life within me.
Give up the things you love for love. Love despite your mood. Take me as I am, let me love you.
Blood on the hands of the Son of God, Oh, the pain that love brings. I will try to defend our love from false feelings. Bend like a bow in the archer's hand, though arrows run swiftly. Strike my flesh, then my bones then pierce my heart- love's poison seeping.
Give up the things you love for love. Love despite your mood. Take me as I am, let me love you.
Dead to the world, you've become my universe. An act of perfect poison-crippled, deaf, and blind inside I've become. My arms hang loose from my shoulders.
Without my arms I cannot hold a shield or wield a mighty sword. Every drop of blood that stains the earth, a stamp on the ground that I love you.
Give up the things you love for love. Love despite your mood. Take me as I am. Let me love you." -King Charles
