Kill Me Better
Don Diablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's just how I feel, it's just how I feel sometimes
I don't wanna tell a lie
I just wanna feel, I just wanna feel alright
I don't really wanna fight
And just disappear, float away for one night, no
Now I'm falling like a landslide
Thought we're on the same side, but it's not right without you
Gotta kill another demon left in my head
He's been scheming on the walls and under my bed
It's the suicidal thoughts that I'm fed
Welcome to my American wasteland
I fell in love with the warzone
This is not my home
This is just a place where I've been
Doing pretty well on my own
But inside of my own head
This is what I've said
Kill me better, you said you'd never
But you keep adding pressure to the wound
Light as a feather, I hate this weather
But I'm guessing that the cold will have to do
I take a minute to relax in my mind
I've been feeling pretty bad there all night
In the dark room staring at the phone light
Sweet dreams, farewell, and goodnight
Gotta kill another demon left in my head
He's been scheming on the walls and under my bed
It's the suicidal thoughts that I'm fed
Welcome to my American wasteland
I fell in love with the warzone
This is not my home
This is just a place where I've been
Doing pretty well on my own
But inside of my own head
This is what I've said
Kill me better, you said you'd never
But you keep adding pressure to the wound
Light as a feather, I hate this weather
But I'm guessing that the cold will have to do
Kill me better, you said you'd never
But you keep adding pressure to the wound
Light as a feather, I hate this weather
But I'm guessing that the cold will have to do
The song Kill Me Better by Don Diablo, Imanbek, and Trevor Daniel talks about the emotional struggle someone goes through when they are battling their inner demons. The first few lines of the song explain that the singer does not want to die, but sometimes they feel like they do. They just want to feel alright, but the suicidal thoughts that haunt them make it impossible to feel that way.
The chorus of the song features the lyrics "kill me better" which suggest that the singer wants to be rid of the thoughts that trouble them. While someone might wonder why they would want to be "killed," it's likely the thought that the pain and struggles they are experiencing will be put to rest. Society's view on suicide can often be negative, but in some cases, it might feel like the only way out. Despite this, the singer knows that they do not really want to die, but the pressure continues to mount.
The second verse of the song touches on the idea that the singer is fighting their inner demons alone and has accepted that it's just them and their thoughts. The metaphorical language used in the lyrics refers to the warzone and the American wasteland. The singer is struggling to find a place where they belong, and their head is the final frontier, where they must make peace with their demons before they can find peace in the real world.
Overall, the song speaks about the complexities of life and how we all deal with struggles differently. While the singer in this song might be fighting to come to terms with their thoughts, it's essential to remember that there is always hope.
