You’re coming home with me tonight.
And I can tell by the way you smile, yeah.
Hey girl, what you sipping on?
I’ll keep ‘em coming all night long.
I just wanna treat you right, yeah.
You bring me down…
Shame, she’s so beautiful.
She doesn’t even know.
She’s killing me. She’s killing me.
Shame, she’s so beautiful.
She doesn’t even know.
She’s killing me. She’s killing me.
Can you tell me who’s hanging on?
‘Cause I don’t wanna start having problems.
I just wanna take you home tonight, yeah.
Hey baby, are you coming home?
‘Cause I’ll be there waiting alone.
And I don’t wanna wait up all night, yeah.
So hold me, bone me, and scold me.
You bring me down…
Shame, she’s so beautiful.

The lyrics of Faded Hope's song "Killing Me" speak about a person's infatuation with someone they find beautiful. The lyrics suggest that the singer is at a party, and they notice this beautiful person, with whom they decide to spend the night. The singer is eager to treat this person well, buying them drinks and hoping that they'll go home with them. In the chorus, the singer admits that they find the other person's beauty to be a problem because they can't stop thinking about them, and it's "killing" them.
The song appears to be about feeling helpless in the face of this infatuation. The singer feels that they have no control over their desire for the other person, which is evidenced by the repetition of the chorus. Furthermore, the singer is aware that this person does not know the effect they have on others, which makes the situation even more difficult. The bridge of the song suggests that the singer is also aware that this situation could lead to problems, which adds a layer of tension to the song.
Overall, "Killing Me" is a song about infatuation and the frustration that comes with feeling unable to shake it. It's a relatable tale of the powerless feeling that love or lust can bring, and the way it can consume a person's thoughts and emotions.
