Killer
Mouse Powell Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ye yeah yeah
Expressing enthusiasm or agreement

And I wish I knew now what I knew then
Reflecting on the past and wishing for knowledge or understanding

Ever since a kid, all I had was music
Music has been a significant part of my life since childhood

I was on my own, tryna build a movement
I was independent, striving to create a meaningful impact

Ain't bad for a C-grade student
Despite not being the best student, I've achieved success

The rent is late, the check is due
Facing financial difficulties and impending obligations

The smiles fake
The displayed happiness is inauthentic

It's safe to bet the breasts are too
Indicating that artificial physical attributes are likely as well

I'm on my way it's been months since
I'm making progress, but it's been a while since

I saw your face, I was on
I last saw you when

Broadway when you called me to pick me up
While I was on Broadway, you contacted me to offer assistance

Don't let me down, don't build me up
Please don't disappoint me or give me false hope

Whole damn town's gonna spit you up
The entire town will reject and discard you

I hope it drops you somewhere near Hollywood
I desire for you to end up in a place close to Hollywood

You've been chasing your dreams for so long
You have been actively pursuing your aspirations for a significant period

It basically seem like you're not awake
It appears as if you are not fully aware or present

You're stayin' asleep
You continue to remain unaware or unresponsive

Make believing you're almost famous
Engaging in a fantasy of being nearly famous

Dear friends, don't call or write my phone
I request my friends to refrain from contacting me

I won't answer you
I will not respond to your attempts to reach me

I ain't seen family in months
I have not visited or spent time with my family for a long time

It's what I had to do
It was necessary for me to prioritize other things over family

Mr friendly really ain't all there
Mr friendly is mentally unstable or not fully present

Just bottles and lines and uncut hair
Engaging in substance abuse and neglecting personal appearance

They don't make them like they used to
The quality of something has declined over time

Good times are gonna be killer
Positive experiences will bring anguish or suffering

Yeah, Smack dab in the middle of a bad week
Currently experiencing a difficult week

You love the battlefield but can't
You enjoy the challenges but struggle to

Stand to be the casualty (damn)
Accept being the one who suffers the consequences

It has to be a two way street
Both parties must contribute in a mutually beneficial manner

All we got in common is how you hate me
The only similarity we share is your dislike towards me

And all I really wanted
My true desire

Was a little recognition
To be acknowledged or appreciated

Just a little room to wiggle
Some freedom or flexibility in my actions

Just a minimal submission
A small amount of compliance or surrender

I'd've made you mine
I would have pursued a romantic relationship with you

I'da changed my whole world
I would have transformed my entire existence

Tryna change your mind
Attempting to alter your perspective or opinion

It ain't fair only one of us can stay behind
The situation is unjust as only one person can move forward

Whiskey on whiskey, my drink is on ice
I am consuming multiple drinks, with my main one served cold

I keep missing the point you
I continuously fail to understand or grasp your intention

Keep paying the price
Suffering the consequences of my actions

I keep that little note you
I hold onto the small message you

Wrote when we broke up
Penned during our separation

Next to other photographs that keep
Adjacent to additional pictures that

Me getting choked up
Evoke intense emotions within me

I've been burying my thoughts
I have been suppressing my thoughts or emotions

With my skeletons
Using my hidden secrets as a means of distraction

This barstool is awkward as hell again
Sitting alone at the bar feels uncomfortable and unpleasant

Get in line with the rest
Join the queue alongside others

That've been left behind it's quitting time
Those who have been abandoned or left behind, it's time to give up

I'll probably be banking on the lottery
I might rely on winning the lottery as a solution

And faking my apology the day
Deceptively offering my apologies when

They come and slaughter me, honestly
They confront and harm me, truthfully

I'm nervous as a preteen
Feeling anxious like a young teenager

Last big prom date, captain of the B Team
My most recent important social event, leading a less popular group

Must've missed the ball game
I probably overlooked the game or opportunity

I never said it's easy
I never claimed it was simple or effortless

I just always figured they'd
I always assumed or expected that they would

Eventually they'd reach me
Eventually, they would come or get to me

Please, put me out to pasture
I request to be retired or removed from active duty

Throw me in some handcuffs
Arrest me and put me into restraints

Promise me some laughter and tell
Assure me of amusement and inform

Me how the band sucks
Of the band's lack of talent or appeal

I'm gettin' sick about it lookin
I am becoming ill or exhausted from observing

At the co pay
The cost I have to bear or endure

The sex part's cool but the rest
Engaging in sexual activities is enjoyable, but the remaining aspects

Of this is so fake
Of this situation or relationship are inauthentic

I used to sit around and tell
In the past, I would frequently express

Myself someday I'll get it straight
The belief of eventually figuring things out

Now I'm just sitting here just waitin'
Currently, I am simply sitting and waiting

To be a kid again
Longing to experience the innocence and freedom of childhood

Good times are gonna be killer
Positive experiences will bring anguish or suffering

Good times are gonna be killin' me
The enjoyment of good times will cause me pain

Good times are gonna be killer
Positive experiences will bring anguish or suffering

Good times are gonna be killin' me
The enjoyment of good times will cause me pain

"Hey Mouse, me again i heard you were
A message addressed to Mouse, expressing previous communication

Looking for first love stories uh
Inquiring about Mouse's interest in hearing stories of initial romantic experiences

I just wanted to tell you to ask your
Informing Mouse to consult with their

Mother she'll tell you more call you later"
Mother, who can provide further details, and promising future contact
