Kill My Mind
Louis Tomlinson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're a nightmare on the dance floor
And you hate me, and I want more
You're a total distraction
While I'm waiting for your reaction
Why, ah, ah, ah

The devil in my brain
Whispering my name
I can hear it sayin', ah, ah, ah
I can ease the pain
Just a little taste babe
And ya won't let go of your hold on me

You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now
You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now

Kept me living
From the last time
From a prison of a past life
On a mission just to feel like
When you kissed me for the last time
Why, ah, ah, ah

The devil in my brain
Whispering my name
I can hear it sayin', ah, ah, ah
I can ease the pain
Just a little taste babe
And ya won't let go of your hold on me

You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now
You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now
You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now

Kill my, kill my, kill my
Kill my, kill my, kill my
Kill my, kill my, kill my
Kill my, kill my, kill my

You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now
You kill my mind
Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now

You kill my mind




Raise my body back to life
And I don't know what I'd do without you now

Overall Meaning

Louis Tomlinson's song "Kill My Mind" is about the intense and addictive nature of a romantic relationship. The lyrics describe the conflicting feelings of love and hate between two people who can't seem to resist each other's charms. While the singer acknowledges that the relationship is a "nightmare" and a "total distraction," they are still drawn to it and want more. They are willing to ignore the warning signs and the devilish voice in their head for the sake of the passion they feel with their partner.


The chorus emphasizes the physical and emotional impact that this relationship has on the singer. They describe how their partner "kills their mind" and "raises their body back to life," suggesting that this love affair is all-consuming and has the power to bring them back from the brink of despair. Despite the potential danger, the singer doesn't know what they'd do without their partner.


Throughout the song, there is a sense of wildness and excitement that comes with giving in to one's desires. The pounding rhythm and electrifying guitar riffs match the lyrics' intensity, creating a sound that captures the thrill of a reckless romance.


Line by Line Meaning

You're a nightmare on the dance floor
You are an irresistible and troublesome presence on the dance floor


And you hate me, and I want more
Even though you do not like me, I am drawn to you even more


You're a total distraction
You divert my attention completely


While I'm waiting for your reaction
As I am anticipating your response


The devil in my brain
The intrusive and obsessive thoughts in my mind


Whispering my name
Giving voice to my deepest desires


I can hear it sayin', ah, ah, ah
I can sense its whispers and urges


I can ease the pain
I can temporarily numb the discomfort


Just a little taste babe
Getting a small dose of what I crave


And ya won't let go of your hold on me
And you continue to exert control over me


You kill my mind
You have a dangerous and addictive effect on me


Raise my body back to life
Reviving my physical senses


And I don't know what I'd do without you now
My dependence on you is strong and uncertain


Kept me living
You kept me alive and motivated


From the last time
From the last moment we were together


From a prison of a past life
From a restricted and unhappy past


On a mission just to feel like
I am pursuing you for the sake of experiencing certain emotions


When you kissed me for the last time
When we shared our final kiss

COMO DAR S'TR3*AM CORRECTAMENTE:
- NO repetir el mismo video una y otra vez
-NO comentes emojis
- tener la mejor calidad de video posible (o x lo menos 480p)
- buscar el nombre completo de la cancion
- NO adelantar o atrasar el video
- NO borrar el historial de busqueda
- NO mencionar las palabras s*tr3'am o v1s1t*as xq se congelan las v1s1t*as
- cuando terminas de ver un video, tenes que ver 2 o 3 mas (en lo posible que no sean del mismo canal de youtube) y luego regresar al que estabas viendo en un principio. Otros videos que pueden ver son Kill my mind Story of my life Walls Drag me down Pillowtalk Lights up
- NO saltearse anuncios menores a los 30 segundos
- NO subie y bajar el volumen constantemente
- escuchar la cancion con mas del 50% del volumen
creo que eso es todo, si saben de algo mas avisen :)
