[Verse 1]
She was hungry, she had appetite
She swore her love to him in candle light
You are god, you are divine
Oh, I will love you till the day that I die

[Verse 2]
He was a hunter, he was drunk with love
He ground her bones into the dust
His back dripped with sweat and blood
He gave himself but it was not enough

[Chorus]
I will love you till the day that I die
I will love you till the day that I die

[Verse 3]
Never had much comfort in my life
Too many secrets and too little pride
But you are splendour in my watershed
Tucked in a tiny kiss to her neck

[Verse 4]
Am I winner if I have success?
Would I be good if I feared death?

[Chorus]
I will love you till the day that I die
I will love you till the day that I die

[Verse 5]
She was hungry, she had appetite
She swore her love to him in candle light
Oh, you are god, you are divine
And I will love you till the day that I die

[Chorus]
I will love you till the day that I die
I will love you till the day that I die
I will love you till the day that I die
I will love you till the day that I die

Garbage

Garbage is a Scottish-American Alternative rock band, formed April 8th 1994. Once producer Butch Vig decided to break out of the rock he had been producing ever since Nirvana’s Nevermind, he got together with his college/studio partners Duke Erikson and Steve Marker to write some demos that would basically be remixes in song form. Once someone commented that “it sounds like garbage”, Vig decided to embrace the name. Then they invited Scottish singer Shirley Manson after seeing her on MTV, and the band’s sound was completed with sly, dark and snarky lyrics delivered in a sultry way.

The band’s eponymous debut album was a surprise hit upon release in August 1995, selling more than 4 million copies worldwide. Follow-up Version 2.0 (1998) was equally successful, even receiving a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year. Then the band recorded “The World Is Not Enough” to the eponymous James Bond movie, and the record industry started to bring the band down.

Beautiful Garbage (2001) was barely promoted due to a release too close to the 9/11 attacks, and underperformed at the charts. Fourth album Bleed Like Me (2005) had a troubled production where bandmembers were frequently arguing, and eventually the album’s tour was cut short and Garbage disbanded for 2 years, only regrouped in 2007 to record new tracks for greatest hits compilation Absolute Garbage.
