The band’s upcoming debut release, All Over, due out in August, is a punk rock manifesto that questions everything and denies nothing. From start to finish, All Over brings Kids Insane’s message that there is never one truth through the fury and aggressiveness that is in each song.
Wrecking Ball
Kids Insane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Deal with the pain with honest figures wouldn't matter anyhow...
Lie to yourself, make it through the day
I have nothing to give you when your careless for things I say to you
Ridiculous as it is my heart was yours
Avoiding it like fire was a clever choice.
Plastered to your heel, what an honor to be dragged down
by a little selfish bastard who knows
And i wont let it ever happen again
You're my little wrecking ball
A recipe for my own disaster
All summed in one
YOU TEAR ME APART
Ridiculous as it is my heart was yours
Avoiding it like fire was a clever choice.
Plastered to your heel, what an honor to be dragged down
By a little selfish bastard who knows Nothing but frowns
And I won't let it ever happen again (i won't)
You're my little wrecking ball
A recipe for my own disaster
All summed in one
YOU TEAR ME APART
There's nothing left to say
so point your fingers look my way
so what's left? Why even look my way I have nothing to say.
It's done and it's dead so don't look back for regrets
It's done it's over letting us slip away.
yea, we broke our promises and were better off home.
staying with my thoughts so just leave me alone.
