Has This Hit?
King Krule Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another disappointed soul
Well I try
I try to keep it in control
Well I
I will end up on the dole
It's my life
Well Blue, you've got me on the go
So don't worry
You'll never know
Your eyes
Are never cold
To me
Well at least that's what I was told
Girl
You made
My dreams come true
It's all a clue
It's all for you
Myself is still eighteen
In cue
And it's all
That I want to do
I know when I look into the sky
There is no meaning
And I'm the only one believing
That there's nothing to believe in
I'm dreaming
My aspirations got a ceiling
And now I'm constantly cleaning
The skies you're dealing
Well my guts are on the floor
For you to adore me
And all I can be
See
What I say
On the horizon
The skies are grey
The skies are grey
Has this hit
Aah has this hit
Well I'm tired every night
Some things never seem quite right
I'm never fully content
I wish it were and went
Well, for one
If you're kind
Then people are cunts
They pull stunts
To stunt your progress
I know it's slow to digest
The way you're inside stress
You're not blessed
You're definitely not blessed
I don't deserve history repeating itself
Always see myself getting picked up and left back on the shelf
Again and again
Again and again
You're not my pen
You're my paper
You're not my heart
You're its breaker
You're its breaker
You're its breaker
You're its breaker
You're its breaker

Line by Line Meaning
Dimly man I'm not calling you
I'm not trying to insult or belittle you
Another disappointed soul
Just another person who's feeling let down
Well I try
Despite everything, I'm still trying
I try to keep it in control
I'm doing my best to stay in control of my emotions
Well I
But even so
I will end up on the dole
I'll probably end up unemployed and broke
It's my life
This is just the way things are for me
And now fall into it I go
I'm starting to lose control and spiral downwards
Well Blue, you've got me on the go
You've got me feeling nervous and anxious, Blue
So don't worry
But don't worry about me
You'll never know
You'll never really understand how I'm feeling
Your eyes
The way you see the world
Are never cold
Are always warm and kind
To me
At least that's how you seem to me
Well at least that's what I was told
That's what I've been led to believe
Girl
Addressing a woman
You made
You were the one who
My dreams come true
Helped me achieve my goals and aspirations
It's all a clue
It's all part of my journey
It's all for you
I did it all for you
Myself is still eighteen
I still feel young and inexperienced
In cue
Waiting my turn
And it's all
And that's all
That I want to do
All I really want is to pursue my dreams
I know when I look into the sky
Whenever I contemplate life and existence
There is no meaning
It seems like there's no grand purpose or significance
And I'm the only one believing
But I'm still stubbornly holding onto the belief that there is a deeper meaning
That there's nothing to believe in
Despite my belief, I can't seem to find anything to really believe in
I'm dreaming
I'm still holding onto my dreams
My aspirations got a ceiling
But it seems like I can't achieve all that I desire
And now I'm constantly cleaning
I'm always having to pick up the pieces and keep going
The skies you're dealing
Dealing with your own struggles and issues
Well my guts are on the floor
I'm really putting myself out there and taking risks
For you to adore me
Hoping that you'll appreciate me for who I am
And all I can be
I'm doing the best I can with what I have
See
Look
What I say
Listen to my words
On the horizon
In the future
The skies are grey
Things look bleak and depressing
Has this hit
Am I feeling the full weight of my situation?
Aah has this hit
Am I finally understanding the gravity of my struggles?
Well I'm tired every night
I'm exhausted all the time
Some things never seem quite right
I can't seem to get things to go the way I want them to
I'm never fully content
I can never really relax and be completely happy
I wish it were and went
I wish things were better and easier
Well, for one
First of all, let me say
If you're kind
If you're a good person
Then people are cunts
Other people will treat you terribly
They pull stunts
They'll try to undermine you or cause problems
To stunt your progress
To slow down or stop your success
I know it's slow to digest
I know it's hard to accept and understand
The way you're inside stress
The way you're feeling stressed internally
You're not blessed
You're not lucky or fortunate
You're definitely not blessed
Things are really tough right now
I don't deserve history repeating itself
I don't deserve to have to keep going through the same struggles over and over again
Always see myself getting picked up and left back on the shelf
I always end up feeling like I'm being abandoned or overlooked
Again and again
It keeps happening repeatedly
You're not my pen
You're not the source of my creativity or inspiration
You're my paper
You're the medium through which I express myself
You're not my heart
You're not the thing that truly drives me
You're its breaker
You're the one who causes me pain and heartbreak
You're its breaker
You're the one who causes me pain and heartbreak
You're its breaker
You're the one who causes me pain and heartbreak
You're its breaker
You're the one who causes me pain and heartbreak
You're its breaker
You're the one who causes me pain and heartbreak
