In late 2010 Digital Daggers had the single of the week, "No Easy Way," which gained over 150,000 downloads to promote the release of the debut digital EP Human Emotion. The title track of the EP was used by Ferrero Raffaello for a TV commercial in 2011. Their debut full-length album Close Your Eyes was released on 11 June 2013 by Los Angeles-based indie label El Camino Media. The song "The Devil Within" is currently being featured in trailers for the NBC series The Blacklist, Nikita, and Pretty Little Liars. In February 2014, they released "Aquarius" from the album 'Reimaginations: Volume One', which was used in the first episode of the CW show "Starcrossed".
Digital Daggers released their 2nd and final full-length album Mixed Emotions in 2014. The band had broken up before its release and have since had songs from the album featured in the TV Series How To Get Away With Murder. The song "Back To The Start" is featured on the upcoming Official Soundtrack album for How To Get Away With Murder released on Hollywood Records March 2016. Orange is the New Black featured "Save Us From Ourselves" in Season 7, Episode 4: "How to Do Life." The song begins as Maria recites from a pamphlet "Take what you want and leave the rest."
On 9 November 2017, Digital Daggers announced their return to the stage by presenting their newest song, "Devil's Choir". Space has been heavily active in the film and TV sync world as an artist, producer and performer, especially with his band Digital Daggers.
Do Me Damage
Digital Daggers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we stiched it up the best two children could
But we were ruled by indecision
And we pushed and pulled more than two people should
When you want me I am here
When you change your mind again and disappear
When it's settled and all is clear
So do me damage or do me right
We could be the ones who see the other side
So do me damage or do me right
We could be the only lovers left alive
We made a pact and sad forever
Then we blurred the lines so much, we lost our way
We were broken and stuck together (stuck together)
Then we tried to find the reasons we should stay
When you want me I am here
Then you change your mind again and disappear
So do me damage or do me right
We could be the ones who see the other side
So do me damage or do me right
We could be the only lovers left alive
When it's settled and all is clear
When you want me I am near
When you say that you're mine I come running everytime
So do me damage or do me right (do me right)
We could be the ones who see the other side (other side)
So do me damage or do me right (do me right)
We could be the only lovers left alive
(So do me damage, do me right)
We could be the only lovers left alive
We could be the only lovers left alive
The lyrics of Digital Daggers' song "Do Me Damage" describe a relationship that is filled with indecision, confusion, and uncertainty. The two people involved have made a pact to be together forever but have blurred the lines so much that they have lost their way. They stitch up their wounds but are ruled by indecision and push and pull more than two people should. The singer is always there for their partner, but their partner constantly changes their mind and disappears.
The chorus of the song is a plea for the other person to either do them damage or do them right, to either commit fully to the relationship or end it definitively. They could be the ones who see the other side or the only lovers left alive. The relationship is fragile, and the singer is always waiting for their partner to make up their mind.
The lyrics of this song speak to the emotional turmoil that can come with relationships that are not stable or committed. They also showcase a sense of desperation and a desire for clarity and resolution.
Line by Line Meaning
We made a cut without precision
We made a mistake without careful planning or execution
And we stiched it up the best two children could
And we tried our best to fix the mistake like naive children would
But we were ruled by indecision
But we were unsure of our choices and couldn't make a firm decision
And we pushed and pulled more than two people should
And we struggled to work together, causing more tension than there should have been
When you want me I am here
I am always available for you when you need me
When you change your mind again and disappear
But you often change your mind and distance yourself from me
When it's settled and all is clear
When things are resolved and we have clarity
Oh, you change your mind again and want me near
But then you change your mind again and want me to be close to you
So do me damage or do me right
Either hurt me or treat me well, but make a decision and stick to it
We could be the ones who see the other side
We could learn from each other's perspectives and experiences
We made a pact and sad forever
We promised to be together for a long time, but it ended up being a sad promise
Then we blurred the lines so much, we lost our way
Then we became unsure of where we were headed and lost direction
We were broken and stuck together (stuck together)
We were damaged and yet still connected to each other
Then we tried to find the reasons we should stay
Then we attempted to find reasons to continue our relationship
When you say that you're mine I come running everytime
Whenever you claim ownership over me, I am always quick to respond and be by your side
(So do me damage, do me right)
(So make a decision and treat me either well or poorly)
We could be the only lovers left alive
We could be the only two people in the world that still love each other
