Devour
Mr.kitty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know this
Won't make sense
There's a thing
That I miss

As of now
I'm in bliss
Wandering
The abyss

I know that I've made you hurt
Your words devour what I'm worth
Forgive my faults, in return
I will not cry, I will learn

Meaningless
Attention
Shows you're weak
Purposely

Hold your tongue
As my knife
Will decide
Who was right

I know that I've made you hurt
Your words devour what I'm worth




Forgive my faults, in return
I will not cry, I will learn

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Mr.Kitty's song Devour reveal a sense of regret, but also a sense of detachment from the pain that the singer has caused. The opening lines of "I know this won't make sense, there's a thing I miss" suggests that something has been lost, but that the singer is unable to fully articulate what that is. This is followed by the line "As of now I'm in bliss, wandering the abyss", revealing that the singer has reached a point of acceptance or perhaps even numbness to the situation.


The chorus goes on to admit that the singer has caused hurt to someone else, but in a somewhat detached way, stating "I know that I've made you hurt, your words devour what I'm worth". Despite this, the singer offers an apology, asking for forgiveness for their faults and promising to learn from their mistakes. The final verse takes a more aggressive and confrontational tone, warning the other person to "hold your tongue" as the singer's "knife will decide who was right". This suggests that the singer has reached a point where they are ready to assert themselves and perhaps take a more combative approach to resolving the situation.


Overall, the lyrics of Devour seem to explore themes of regret, detachment and confrontation. The song appears to be about coming to terms with the consequences of actions taken and taking responsibility for mistakes made, even if the outcome of those actions is not fully understood.

Well I'm not used to talking about my life but now I feel I cannot stop
I saw a man and I thought he had my face I heard a preacher and I thought he had my voice
Up on a train since the moment I opened my eyes sometimes I'm sure I've seen this place again but deep in my Heart there's some courage and some hope and certainty that these rails will never end
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore

Well here I stand in the center of the scene with all the lights pointing right in my head
But in the dark there's a man that can't be seen holding a gun with all the power of his hand


The show is over and the applause pricks my ear the hall is empty and the man is getting bigger
He closes his eyes but serenity is gone he laughs at me and at once he pulls the trigger
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore

Now as I lay dead upon the floor I know my name will never be forgotten
I see that train getting lost inside the smoke and my body being fresh instead of rotten
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore
