I know how to hurt,
I know how to kill
I know what to show
and what to conceal
it starts out describing someone who is basically in "survival mode". You dont' let anyone close, you show what you need to to get what you want, you hurt when you need to, kill when you have to (not literally, its symbolism)
But then it goes into "No one ever died from wanting too much, the world is not enough, but it is a perfect place to start, my love" So the song shifts to symbolize finding love and taking a risk (ie. getting hurt). Kind of describes the feeling of first falling in love, where you feel powerful and alive and that you can do anything. The rest of the song just describes living like there's no tomorrow, that kind of thing.
I feel sick, i feel scared, i feel ready, yet unprepared
describes the feeling of doing something new or risky. Butterflies, anxious, yet excited and resolute.
"the world is not enough, but it is such a perfect place to start, my love. together we can take the world apart, my love." As in, I would give up this world for you, but even that wouldn't equal my love for you. So yeah, basically about new love, and the excitement and fear and strength you get from it.
