Killer
Noisuf-X [feat. Dr. Mark Benecke] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You should hear what the neighbors say, the way the neighbors stare
Everyone's got a different story but I got mine the hard way
Why'd I go and give my heart to a heart killer?
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
I can't breathe when I hear your name
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
I saw you dancing in the basement
You were miles away
Part of me wanted it all to burn
And part of me wanted to stay
How could this be meant to be
When what I want is dead to me?
Why'd I gotta go and give my heart to a heart killer?
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
I can't breathe when I your hear name
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
You're a
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
I can't breathe when I hear your name
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
You
Promises only broken
Spitting in my hand
We made a floor
We made a love
Castles made of sand
Baby, you love like a love leaver
Just a touch and it's time to go
Why'd I gotta go and give my heart to a heart killer?
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
I can't breathe when I hear your name
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
You're a
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
I can't breathe when I hear your name
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
You're a
Baby, baby, can you save me?
Save me, baby, dig my grave
You're a
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer, heart killer
Heart killer
The lyrics to Noisuf-X's song "Killer" depict a dysfunctional and toxic relationship. The singer describes the physical appearance and behavior of the person they are involved with, emphasizing their destructive nature. The neighbors also seem to notice something off about this person, adding to the sense of alarm and concern. The singer acknowledges that everyone has their own stories about this individual, but they have personally experienced the harm caused by giving their heart to this "heart killer."
The chorus repeats the phrase "Heart killer" to emphasize the destructive power of this person on the singer. They express feeling suffocated and consumed by their presence, as if their very existence is being drained away. The second verse describes a scene where the singer witnesses the person dancing in the basement, and despite conflicting emotions, they question how this relationship was ever meant to be when the person they desire is detrimental to them.
The bridge of the song introduces the idea of broken promises, symbolized by spitting in one's hand. It highlights the fragility of their love, marked by fleeting moments and instabilities. The reference to castles made of sand emphasizes the ephemeral nature of their relationship and the inevitability of its collapse. The chorus is repeated once more before the song ends with the plea for salvation, but also the realization that this person is ultimately a heart killer.
Line by Line Meaning
You should see the way you walk, the way you cut your hair
Your appearance and demeanor are captivating and unique
You should hear what the neighbors say, the way the neighbors stare
People around us are intrigued and gossip about our relationship
Everyone's got a different story but I got mine the hard way
While everyone has their own experiences, mine was particularly difficult
Why'd I go and give my heart to a heart killer?
I question why I entrusted my heart to someone who destroys love
Heart killer, heart killer
You possess the ability to harm and destroy hearts
I can't breathe when I hear your name
Mentioning your name suffocates me emotionally
You're in my veins and you're eating my brains
You consume my thoughts and emotions, becoming a part of me
I saw you dancing in the basement
I witnessed you lose yourself in a moment of freedom and expression
You were miles away
During that dance, you seemed detached and distant
Part of me wanted it all to burn
A part of me desired destruction and chaos
And part of me wanted to stay
On the other hand, a part of me longed to remain and endure
How could this be meant to be
I question the possibility of our relationship being destined
When what I want is dead to me?
What I desire feels lifeless and unattainable
Promises only broken
Our promises have been continuously shattered
Spitting in my hand
You show disrespect and contempt towards me
We made a floor
We built a foundation for our relationship
We made a love
Our love was created and molded by our shared experiences
Castles made of sand
However, our love feels fragile and transient
Baby, you love like a love leaver
You express love with the intention of abandoning it
Just a touch and it's time to go
A mere touch from you signals the end of our connection
Baby, baby, can you save me?
I seek salvation and rescue from you
Save me, baby, dig my grave
Instead, you lead me towards destruction and despair
