The song "To Love Is To Die" by Juliet Simms explores the concept of love and the sacrifices that come with it. The lyrics depict a love that is eternal but ultimately leads to death. The song begins with the imagery of rain falling and the protagonist standing on the edge, symbolizing the start of a new chapter. The line "This moment'll make it last, Eternal love is dead" suggests that despite the everlasting nature of their love, it has also caused their demise. The lyrics continue to express the desire to live forever, knowing that there is a price to pay for love. The line "To love is to die, I'm never gonna change my mind" suggests a determination to continue loving despite the consequences. The chorus emphasizes the sacrifice of love, with the mention of laying on a bed of roses and the path they have chosen. The phrase "sweetest sacrifice" conveys both the sweetness and pain that come with love. The song also explores the idea of love being seen as madness by others, as mentioned in the line "Someone told me love was madness, to just forget it, and it’s not worth it". Yet, the protagonist remains steadfast in their love, even if it means walking through life as a "dead woman". Overall, "To Love Is To Die" is a reflection on the power and intensity of love, and the willingness to face the consequences that may come with it.
