Killstation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll never get you out my head
I wish I felt the way I did
But I can't stand the way we lived
Only way of keeping track is by the blisters on my hand
Wish that you weren't so distracted, wish that you would understand
Only thing that ever mattered was the life that we had planned
I've been thinking about...
Everything you left unsaid
I'll never get you out my head
I wish I felt the way I did
But I can't stand the way we lived
The lyrics to Killstation's song "The Two of Us Are Dying" speak about the unsaid messages that were left in a relationship that ended abruptly. The persona in the song feels haunted by the things that were not said, and they can't seem to get their ex-partner out of their mind. The persona wishes they felt the same way they used to, but the way the relationship was handled was unbearable. The chorus repeats these lines, emphasizing the importance of communication in a relationship, and how it can hinder someone's ability to move on.
The next verse highlights the harsh reality that the only way to keep track of time is by the blisters on their hand. This implies that the persona has been engaging in self-destructive behaviors as a response to the breakup. The persona wishes that their partner wasn't so distracted and that they understood how important their plans and dreams were. However, they also acknowledge that every life will have to end eventually. The ending of the verse leaves the listener with a sense of finality and acceptance.
Overall, the song speaks to the importance of communication and being present in a relationship. The lack of communication and distractions ultimately lead to the breakup of the relationship, and the persona's inability to heal and move on.
