Extinction
Killstation Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They try to hold me back to hide the fact that I'm a threat
My mind's the truth behind the lies and I define what they regret
And fact the matter is it isn't yet a promise till it's kept
And honestly, we'll see the past repeat itself until the end

They try to hold me back to hide the fact that I'm a threat
My mind's the truth behind the lies and I define what they regret
And fact the matter is it isn't yet a promise till it's kept
And honestly, we'll see the past repeat itself until the end

I'm meant to be the one to fix the cycle, spinning till I'm dead
I'll run into the sun until it's coming back behind my head




I never knew the reason that I was alive until I bled
I know I won't be here for very long, I'm hanging by a thread

Overall Meaning

In this song, Killstation is expressing the feeling of being held back by others because they see him as a threat. He believes that his mind holds the truth that others try to hide behind their lies. He acknowledges that promises are only valid when they are kept and that history often repeats itself until the bitter end. Despite this, he is determined to break the cycle and fix it before it’s too late. He will push himself to the limit and beyond, even if it means sacrificing himself in the process.


The opening lines suggest that Killstation is not being allowed to fully express himself or reach his full potential. Those around him are threatened by him and seek to limit his reach. Killstation, however, is not deterred and is aware that he can only reach his peak when he is free to be himself. He goes on to say that he is the one who will break the cycle, that he is taking it upon himself to make things right. There is a sense of urgency and desperation in his voice as he feels that time is running out.


In the last few lines, Killstation reveals that he has been searching for a reason to live, and he found it after experiencing pain and bloodshed. There is a sense of acceptance in his words, as if he has come to terms with the fact that he may not be around for much longer, but he will do what is necessary in order to make a difference.

hello Russians,
I can't paste the translation into the video, so it's here.
//Привет Русские! Я не могу вставить перевод в видео, поэтому он тут.
Они пытаются подавить меня, чтоб скрыть тот факт, что я угроза,
Мой разум — это правда, скрывающаяся за ложью, и это я определяю их сожаления,
Суть в том, что обещание не обещание, пока его не сдержат,
И честно говоря, мы увидим, как прошлое будет повторяться до самого конца.
Они пытаются подавить меня, чтоб скрыть тот факт, что я угроза,
Мой разум — это правда, скрывающаяся за ложью, и это я определяю их сожаления,
Суть в том, что обещание не обещание, пока его не сдержат,
И честно говоря, мы увидим, как прошлое будет повторяться до самого конца.

Я должен стать тем, кто исправит этот порочный круг, я буду вращаться до самой смерти,
Я буду сталкиваться с солнцем, пока оно не окажется у меня за спиной,
Я даже не знал, почему я живу, пока не начал страдать,
Я знаю, что не задержусь здесь: я повис на волоске.
