Dirt
Jenn Vix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have never felt such frustration
Or lack of self control
I want you to kill me
And dig me under, I want to live no more

One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me
For me

I want to taste dirty, a stinging pistol
In my mouth, on my tongue
I want you to scrape me from the walls
And go crazy like you've made me

One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me

One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me, for me

You, you are so special
You have the talent to make me feel like dirt
And you, you use your talent to dig me under
And cover me with dirt

One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me





One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jenn Vix's song "Dirt" are very emotive and deal with themes of frustration, lack of self-control, and how love can make someone feel like they are being buried alive. The singer is so overwhelmed with their emotions that they feel like they no longer want to live. They are entranced with the idea of being killed and buried, so as to escape from their intense emotional pain. They have tried to avoid what is not good for them, but they are unable to resist the temptation of pain and suffering.


In the chorus, the singer expresses their desire to be dominated by their lover. They want to experience something that is raw, intense, and possibly painful. The love in this song is not presented as a happy, fulfilling emotion, but rather as something twisted, obsessive and dark. The relationship is depicted as one of power dynamics, where the partner holds all the cards.


Line by Line Meaning

I have never felt such frustration
I have never experienced such a powerful feeling of annoyance or anger


Or lack of self control
Or a feeling of not being able to manage myself


I want you to kill me
I desire for you to end my life


And dig me under, I want to live no more
And bury my body so that I do not have to live anymore


One who doesn't care, is one who shouldn't be
A person who lacks empathy or concern should not exist


I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me
I have attempted to avoid things that are not good for me


I want to taste dirty, a stinging pistol
I crave the sensation of something unpleasant, like a gun pressed against my lips


In my mouth, on my tongue
Touching the inside of my mouth and tongue with the weapon


I want you to scrape me from the walls
I desire for you to remove me from the surrounding environment


And go crazy like you've made me
And behave wildly out of control like you have caused me to do


You, you are so special
You, as an individual, have a unique quality about you


You have the talent to make me feel like dirt
You possess a gift for making me feel worthless


And you, you use your talent to dig me under
And you choose to utilize your ability to bury me deeper


And cover me with dirt
And hide me from sight with soil
