Out of My Head
Digital Daggers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In the porcelain, there's a crack
I've seen your dark side
Now there's no turning back
Tasted the poison on your tongue
It almost killed me

I know what's underneath the mask
What seemed so good at first is under attack
I'm in the wreckage, damage done
It almost killed me

I loved you like a burning effigy
Now all that's left is cinders
(Now all that's left is cinders)
In the darker days of you and me
When every little bit of it hurts

I gotta get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
Oh, oh, it's gonna blow
Get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
I gotta let it go

Disappointed disengage
You wrapped your limbs around me
Hard to escape
I'm catatonic, cannot run
It almost killed me

I got too caught up so I loved you like a burning effigy
Now all that's left is cinders
(Now all that's left is cinders)
In the darker days of you and me
When every little bit of it hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts!

I gotta get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
Oh, oh, it's gonna blow
Get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
I gotta let it go

Your heart was a curious obsession
I can't feel it, I can't feel it
Your heart, it was never my possession
I can't steal it, I can't steal it
Walk away, walk away, gonna be okay
Walk away, walk way, god, I wanna stay

I gotta get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
Oh, oh, it's gonna blow
Get right, get right, get right
Out of my head
Woah, oh, woah
I gotta let it go

I can't feel it
Oh, oh, it's gonna blow
Get right, get right, get right
Out of my head




I can't steal it
I gotta let it go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Digital Daggers' song, "Out of My Head," describe a toxic and tumultuous relationship that is coming to a close. The singer has seen the "dark side" of their partner and can't ignore the "poison" in their words and actions. They know that what seemed good at first is now "under attack," and they've been "damaged" by the experience. The singer once loved their partner "like a burning effigy," but now they are left with nothing but ashes. They are trying to move on and "get right, get right, get right" out of their head, but it's clear that it won't be easy.


The lyrics touch on the conflicting emotions that come with trying to end a toxic relationship. The singer is disappointed and disengaged, but feels trapped by their partner's embrace. They are "catatonic, cannot run," and afraid that love will almost kill them again. The heart of the partner was once a "curious obsession," but now the singer can't feel it or claim it as their own. They want to walk away and be okay, but they still "god, wanna stay" and cling to what's familiar.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of pain, loss, and desperation as the singer tries to break free from a damaging relationship. It's a reminder that love can be just as dangerous as it is beautiful, and that it takes strength to let go and "get right" again.

By watching this one might think the lyrics are short, but when you realize the amount of times words like "I" "can't" "that's" "it" are said then you see how complete the song is

Sky Squad

I like how it uses smaller parts of bigger words for certain lyrics
