Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't wanna let this moment slip away
Cause I-I have something that I really need to say
And it's killing me inside
I think that you don't understand
How I-I would give you all I have and all I am
Till the end of time

You got me defenseless, intoxicated senseless
You cut me so deeply, I must confess

Baby I can't breath, when my arms around you
Baby it kills me cause now that I found you
Your love is like a weapon girl, I can't live without you
You're so beautiful, it's tearing me apart
You murder my heart (oh)
You murder my heart (oh girl)

I need to catch my breathe with you sometimes
Cause I-I get dizzy when your body's touching mine
Girl you're killing me inside
The way you move is much too sexy baby
So I-I surrender to your hands, your lips, your taste
And I'm telling you tonight

You got me defenseless, intoxicated senseless
You cut me so deeply, I must confess

Baby I can't breath, when my arms around you
Baby it kills me cause now that I found you
Your love is like a weapon girl, I can't live without you
You're so beautiful, it's tearing me apart
You murder my heart (oh)
You murder my heart (oh girl)

I climb up the past that I could never escape
Girl you hurt me and changed from the start
I'm just a witness to the scene of my heart
And the way you've been slaying my heart

Baby I can't breath when my arms around you
Baby it kills me cause now that I found you
Your love is like a weapon girl, I can't live without you
You're so beautiful, it's tearing me apart
You murder my heart (oh)
You murder my heart (oh girl)
You murder my heart (oh)
You murder my heart (tears me apart)




You murder my heart (girl)
You murder my heart (oh girl)

Overall Meaning

The song "Murder My Heart" by Lady GaGa ft. Michael Bolton is a ballad about being hopelessly in love with someone and feeling vulnerable to their love. GaGa expresses her feelings of being captivated by someone who holds a special place in her heart. She wants to hold onto every moment and make every second count. GaGa believes that if she lets go of this moment or this person, it would be a huge loss for her. However, she senses that the feelings may not be reciprocated the same way she feels them. GaGa feels as though she is killing on the inside because she cannot prove the depth of her love. She has a burning desire to let the person know how much they mean to her and how his love makes her feel alive.


The lyrics go on to state that the person has taken a hold of GaGa's emotions to the point that she is entirely defenseless. She is so in love that she feels intoxicated and cut deeply by the love. Every time she is around, she feels as though she cannot breathe. She wants to hold onto the person so tightly but is afraid that she might hurt him. The person's love is like a weapon that GaGa cannot live without; her love for him is tearing her apart. The chorus repeats the lines "You murder my heart" three times, and she admits that she is a witness to the scene of her heart's love, which the person has been slaying.
