U & I
Clair Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die
The last thing that I'll do while torturing you is cry
Cos I've been waiting for this
Moment my whole life
I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die
I've already dug a shallow grave in the ground
I don't think there's any chance anyone will be coming round
There won't be a trace
Ya know acid removes a face
You'll pretty much be erased

I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die
The last thing that I'll do while torturing you is cry
Cos I've been waiting for this
Moment my whole life
I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die

The thought of shooting you came so easy
I also considered cutting you at the knee
Or the whole time just leave you tied to a tree
Fuck it, I did all three. Look at me!

Out here tonight it's gonna snow
It'll be near five below
But I've got Netflix on my phone
Downloaded my favorite show
First you're tripping, then you're falling
Could you please stop trying to crawl
I've had about enough of your screams
We're coming up on my favorite scene

I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die
The last thing that I'll do while torturing you is cry
Cos I've been waiting for this
Moment my whole life
I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die
I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die




I've Got all the time in the world
To sit and watch you die

Overall Meaning

It is important to note that the lyrics to Clair’s song “U & I” are graphic, violent and disturbing in nature. On the surface, this song appears to be about a violent and sadistic individual who has been planning the torture and murder of someone for their entire life. The opening lines suggest that the singer has been waiting for this moment for a long time, and that they take pleasure in watching their victim suffer. This person has already prepared a grave for their victim, and seems certain that no one will be able to find them. They even suggest that they are going to disfigure the body with acid so that there will be no evidence left behind.


The second verse reveals that the singer has already inflicted several forms of torture on their victim, including shooting, cutting and tying them up. They seem to take pleasure in the physical and emotional pain they are causing, and describe their victim’s screams as if they are an annoyance. The final verse adds a strange twist to the story, with the singer casually mentioning that it is going to snow outside and that they have Netflix downloaded on their phone. This juxtaposition of horrific violence and mundane activities is unsettling, and seems to suggest that the singer is almost bored with their actions.


Overall, it is clear that this song is exploring dark and taboo themes related to violence, death and sadism. However, it is important to remember that lyrics like these are often not meant to be taken literally, and may instead be a reflection of the artist’s own psychological state or a commentary on wider societal issues.
