Death Lyrics

It's funny that many people can drag out love in every song... It can be, but it can also be him describing himself to us, the people who listen to his song, telling stuff, how he looks at things. I love that in the beginning he questions certain things like death, life, and how in the end he seems to have found an answer :

I live on the right side, I sleep on the left That's why everything has got to be love or death

Also:

I close my eyes as my hands shake and when I see a new day

Could it be about meeting new people? A new day... A new beginning? It sounds like the start of something new Well, I'm not certain of the meaning but I'll just wait for an interview Love this song, it's light but the lyrics can be seen as heavy since he's talking about death but the way he sings is it, it's like he's found peace in death and also acceptation.
