Murder
Boyinaband Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ah Ah Ah I'm looking at you from a distance
mirrored in the glint of my knife
Ah Ah Ah It could be over in an instant
there within a blink of an eye

Not one for human connections
But I feel restless piercing your flesh is the bestest
stabbing every inch of skin with force
while screaming to myself "there's not enough pores yet"

trace the blade to your stomach push it and it's bliss
now brace for pain as I twist it
round and round then flick it out like a discus
and show nobody's more vicious than Minx is

So babe // take this virgin blade
so far in your back it'll replace your vertebrae
Pull out and watch your back snap
Hahahahaha you're damn right that's the last laugh

Ah Ah Ah
I think one of us is hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us is gonna die
One of us is gonna die, die
Oh my god!

Ah Ah Ah
I think somebody's hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us will be alive
One of us will be alive, -live
Oh my god!

Ah Ah-Ah Ah- I have you begging on your knees
oh it's such a pleasing sight
Ah Ah-Ah Ah- I know you're scared but at least
it'll be over before your tears go dry

I can promise it won't won't hurt
You look hot and tight with that rope burn
But know tonight you're getting broken
‘cause I'm prone to violence and emotion, RA!

Oh, don't try to escape, it won't work
just prepare to kiss this knife till your throat hurts
while I push it further and further towards your sternum "please don't let me die here"
Well where do you want to be murdered?

Shh Shh, don't be shy
Tell me how you feel
What's it like knowing you're going to die?
I'm ready to commit to you // Yeah, cause tonight
I'll be with you for the rest of your life

Ah Ah Ah
I think one of us is hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us is gonna die
One of us is gonna die, die
Oh my god!

Ah Ah Ah
I think somebody's hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us will be alive
One of us will be alive, -live
Oh my god!

Ah- I walk in and their air gets Chilled
Chaos ensues and the blood gets spilled
no subtlety left, step into the room,
knife out // Next one to move, you're doomed

"Oh Look who's brought a knife to a gun fight"
"I've tracked your crimes for weeks, it comes down to this one night"
"No better detective, I'll show you how it's done right"
"Hah, You're underestimate what I can do with this blunt knife"

"Ahhh oh my god! I feel the blade on my neck"
"Shut up slut, or I'll cut this vein and you're dead"
C'mon mr. detective Shoot me! "fill his brain with lead!"
"Ok, take a breath, just aim for the head

"Aaaaah, not like this, I got shot in the gut"
"Oh no, what have I done? This is all too much"
Oh, that was your chance, what a surprise
Now it's time to take a guided tour of your insides

Badum Badum, that's the sound of a chase
Badum Badum, that's the sound that it makes
Badum Badum, then a fatal mistake and
Badum Ba- and the dum never comes

Badum Badum, that's the sound of a chase
Badum Badum, that's the sound that it makes
Badum Badum, then a fatal mistake and
Badum Ba- and the dum never comes

Ah Ah Ah
I think one of us is hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us is gonna die
One of us is gonna die, die
Oh my god!

Ah Ah Ah
I think somebody's hiding something, hiding something
What does that mean?
One of us will be alive




One of us will be alive, -live
Oh my god!

After this part (3:06):

Aww, that was your chance!
“I missed!”
What a surprise.
“No!”
Now it’s time to take a guided tour of your insides!

Did anyone else hear Dave scream, “Oh god!” in the background, or was it just me? It’s not in the lyrics, but I swear you can hear it if you listen closely enough at 3:11!



@simplybell4971

Dave: Officer, it wasn't me, I swear on the queen of England!

Picks up strand of long red hair

You sure about that?

Dave: Anyone can have long red hair!

Picks up another strand but black hair and red hair together

You sure again?

Dave: PREPARE TO DIE

So based on their voices, Minx is a crazy person, Dave is a sadist and Chilled is a psychopath.
