Get Away With Murder
Jeffree Star Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)
You should've known from the start that it wouldn't last forever
(Ever)
(Hey, hey, hey)

I can't control myself
I feel like someone else
I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)

There's a mystery inside my head
It was you dripping all in red
Did I hurt you?
Let me make it safe and sound

Can you feel me breathing down your neck?
You're just a perfect little human wreck
But I like you
enough to destroy you, tear you down

I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)
You should've known from the start that it wouldn't last forever
(Ever)
(Hey, hey, hey)

I can't control myself
I feel like someone else
I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)

There's a memory inside my head
It feels like a part of me is dead
I should save you
but I want to watch you drown

There's nothing you could say or do
Words mean nothing when your lips so blue
I love you
and now that you're six feet underground

I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)
You should've known from the start that it wouldn't last forever
(Ever)
(Hey, hey, hey)

I can't control myself
I feel like someone else
I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)

(Hey, hey)
it's time to spill your guts
And I don't like what I see on the inside
I'm looking at the evidence
This feels like a flawless crime
Did you forget that love was dangerous?
And I feel like I'm, I

I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)
You should've known from the start that it wouldn't last forever
(Ever)
(Hey, hey, hey)

I can't control myself
I feel like someone else
I'm gonna break your heart and get away with murder
(Murder)
(Hey, hey, hey)

If Jeffree ever pursues his music career again, I hope he stays [mostly!] in this genre of music. It's definitely the catchest, and freshest music I've listened to.

@onderle666

True... Not the boring ass pop nowadays. Pop in the period between 2009-2013 was kinda agressive like this. I listen to metal but i've known of jeffree since 2012 or whatever

@msmexicanmonster1

The lyrics! I love those dark, twisted, risky, defying society lyrics! I would love for him to go back to music

@sister_pigalien_queen4345

Jeffree is coming out with new music this year. Jeffree talked about it in James Charles messy makeup trivia challenge.

@TwistedRagdoll

Clearly you have never been introduced to future funk.

@briseadh
