Death And The Maiden Lyrics

Lyric discussion by WhipsFeldman 

Cover art for Death And The Maiden lyrics by Elemeno P

This is a song by the Verlaines and COVERED by elemeno P very poorly. Okay, so paul verlaine and arthur rimbaud were both french poets in like 1900 or something. And they were a couple. but verlaine got drunk and shot rimaud in the arm (he didn't die though) so thats why it says "You'll only end up like rimbaud, get shot by verlaine"

and i think death and the maiden is a painting (by edvard munch?) I think it's of a woman hugging a skeleton, so i guess that's what a photo of the guy in the song and whoever the song is to, would look like.
