락을 초등학교 3-4학년 때부터 듣기 시작했기 때문에 너무 오래전이라 정확히 언제 이 노래를 접했는지 기억하지는 못하지만, 처음 듣고 가사 첫줄을 읽었을 때부터 어린시절부터 이어져 온 나의 우울에 잘 공명해주던 노래였다는 것은 확실히 기억난다. "I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be"는 아직도 너무 슬픈 가사다.. 개인적으로는 love of my life, made in heaven과 이 노래를 정말 많이 들었었다. 이 곡은 굳이 해석이 필요없는 곡이기에 가사만 첨부하기로..

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long

Oh, I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'Cause you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you - every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down

Oh, how would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose

Oh yes

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you every time

Yes, too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end
In the end
