Landslide
Kidneythieves Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I want a landslide, to call my own...
I want to feel it take control.
I want a landslide to call my own
I want to feel it take me up, lose control

I've been thinking way too much for my own good
I've been drinking way too much for my own good
I want a gun to shoot somewhere




I want a knife to slash my wrist
I want a landslide to feel

Overall Meaning

the world move beneath my feet
I want to know that I exist


The song "Landslide" by Kidneythieves paints a vivid picture of a person struggling with their emotions and searching for something to make them feel alive. The lyrics speak about the desire to experience a landslide, which in this context represents a feeling of being completely overtaken by something powerful and overwhelming. The desire for control is present, yet paradoxically, the singer also seeks to lose control in the landslide. The lyrics also allude to more destructive desires such as wanting a gun or a knife, perhaps as a means to escape the turmoil of their thoughts.


The chorus emphasizes the desire for ownership and control: "I want a landslide to call my own...I want to feel it take control." The landslide is something they long for and are willing to lose themselves in; it is a means of feeling alive and present. The song's bridge reveals the singer's struggle with their sense of self-worth, as they yearn to know that they exist.


Overall, "Landslide" is a complex exploration of conflicting desires, where the yearning for control and a sense of purpose is mixed with self-destructive tendencies. It speaks to the fragile nature of mental health and the difficulty of finding balance within oneself.

Arsenal"

Naive little pieces of
what they tried to teach her
quiet and protected
slightly anorexic

(She Waits)
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on
she's gonna use it and surprise them
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on
they'll never know where she got her weapon.

they really don't believe her
she keeps it all a secret
found the Golden Muses
doesn't need to prove it

(She Waits)
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on

she's gonna use it and surprise them
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on
they'll never know where she got her weapon.

naive little pieces
she thought that they could see her
but soon the Desert Pigs will know
she's holding in an arsenal.

(She Waits)
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on
she's gonna use it and surprise them
she's a time bomb, with her vibe on
they'll never know where she got her weapon.

She Waits.
