The Girl Who Destroys
Amber Pacific Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna pay for all my stupidest mistakes
You make me want and do completely different things
Are you listening to me? Are you listening to me?
She's like a shot in the dark, adrenaline in my heart
It always happens when we're together
No matter how much the pain
I can't kick the habit 'cause I just gotta have it
But she's the girl who destroys entire worlds
When all the smoke clears, I should turn around and hit the ground
You're such a joke, I'm not sure what I've lost or found
Blame it on me 'cause I can't see this going anywhere
It's just not fair, I can't compare to anyone or anything
She's like a shot in the dark, adrenaline in my heart
It always happens when we're together
No matter how much the pain
You know I'll do it again and again until forever
I can't kick the habit 'cause I just gotta have it
But she's the girl who destroys entire worlds
'Cause you just happened to push me through the fall
That's the way you start it all
'Cause what's yours is mine, let's get it right this time
'Cause it just happened to get us through it all
I don't want to watch this fall
'Cause what's yours is mine, let's get it right this time
She's like a shot in the dark, adrenaline in my heart
It always happens when we're together
No matter how much the pain
You know I'll do it again and again until forever
I can't kick the habit 'cause I just gotta have it
But she's the girl who destroys entire
She's the girl who destroys entire
'Cause she's the girl who destroys my entire world
The lyrics to Amber Pacific's song "The Girl Who Destroys" are a confession of the singer's addiction to a certain girl, who he describes as being like "a shot in the dark, adrenaline in my heart." He acknowledges that she brings pain and destruction into his life, but he can't help wanting her and doing anything to be with her, "until forever." He admits blame for the situation, saying "blame it on me 'cause I can't see this going anywhere" and feeling like he can't compare to anyone or anything. Despite all of this, he cannot kick the habit she represents, because she is the one who has the power to destroy his entire world.
Overall, the song seems to be about the irrational, destructive nature of addiction to a person or a feeling. The singer is aware of the unhealthy dynamic he has with this girl, but he feels powerless to change it, and is essentially addicted to the highs and lows that come with being with her.
One possible interpretation of the repeated "Are you listening to me?" question in the chorus could be that the singer is trying to get through to the girl and make her understand the impact she has on him, but she is not listening or taking responsibility for her own actions.
