Killing You
Broods Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You like to call me when I'm alone
Tell me that it's all for me
And I wish that I was home
But we can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, we can make up for it on the weekend

But it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, that I'm killing you

But we can make up for it on the weekend

I got your picture everywhere I go
Telling all the boys I'm yours
And I know that it's hard to show
But I can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, I can make up for it on the weekend

Ohh

But it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, that I'm killing you

But I can make up for it on the weekend

White sheets, three weeks never where you are
Too bad, nomadic is who we are
White sheets, three weeks
Never where you are
Never where you are

But it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, and it's killing you
'Cause I wish you were here
And it's killing me, that I'm killing you





But I can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, I can make up for it on the weekend

You like to call me when I'm alone
You reach out to me when I am feeling lonely


Tell me that it's all for me
You reassure me that our relationship is solely for my benefit


And I wish that I was home
I long to be in the comfort of my own space


But we can make up for it on the weekend
But we can spend quality time together on the upcoming weekend


Oh, we can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, we can spend quality time together on the upcoming weekend


But it's killing me, and it's killing you
However, the distance between us is causing immense emotional pain to both of us


'Cause I wish you were here
Because I yearn for your physical presence


And it's killing me, that I'm killing you
It is agonizing to me that my absence is hurting you so much


I got your picture everywhere I go
I carry a photo of you with me all the time


Telling all the boys I'm yours
Boasting to everyone about being in a committed relationship with you


And I know that it's hard to show
I am aware that displaying affection publicly is difficult for you


But I can make up for it on the weekend
But I can show you how much I care during our weekend together


Oh, I can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, I can show you how much I care during our weekend together


White sheets, three weeks never where you are
I have been sleeping alone in white sheets for three weeks without you by my side


Too bad, nomadic is who we are
Unfortunately, our lifestyle requires us to be on the move and apart often


Never where you are
I am never with you


And it's killing me, and it's killing you
The emotional toll of our distance is affecting us both deeply


'Cause I wish you were here
Because I miss you so much


And it's killing me, that I'm killing you
It pains me to know that my absence is causing you so much pain


But I can make up for it on the weekend
But we can heal and connect during our time together on the upcoming weekend


Oh, I can make up for it on the weekend
Oh, we can heal and connect during our time together on the upcoming weekend
