Killer
Kat (POLAND) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A stony monument of dirt-city
Knife concealed in dark
Face covered up
City gettin' silent
City's sleeping
Only the killer mocks

Waiting
Hunters, find your victim
Human glance is sweet, though
You notice
Looks of greed, envy lust
Tears of hate
Now you'll know yourself better at last
And your dreams
Like shadows
Huntin' the corpses
Blood and the corpse

Killing
Human dreams
Like shadows
Hauntin' the corpse
Blood and the corpse




Dead line, death fuck you
No, no, death fuck you.

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Kat(POLAND)'s song "Killer" depict a dark and disturbing image of a city at night where a killer is lurking, waiting to strike. The first verse paints an eerie picture of a "stony monument of dirt-city" where the killer is hiding, the city is sleeping and only the killer is mocking. The second verse describes the killers' mindset and motivations, as they hunt their victim. The human glance is sweet to them, and they notice the looks of greed, envy, and lust in their victim's eyes. The killer is aware that this act will reveal the victim's true self and allow them to know themselves better. The lyrics in the last section of the song are particularly striking, where the killer celebrates killing and the haunting effects of the act, with lines like "Haunting the corpse, dead line, death fuck you."
