Kill
Sleep Talk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eyes to the ceiling
Still nothing moves you
On repeat to digest
The words that I took in
The night just before
Anger filled my heart
Seething blood, bone and mind
Look inside there's no empathy
Your situation nothing to me
Fall off the earth
Then I'll be able to sleep
Dark thoughts in the night
Screaming kill, kill
Dark thoughts in the night
Screaming kill, kill
Dark thoughts in the night
Screaming kill, kill
I'll hold your eyes open
You can watch instead
Dark thoughts in the night
Screaming kill, kill
I'll hold your eyes open
You can watch instead
Fall off the Earth
Then I'll be able to sleep
Your situation means nothing to me
Can you hear it now
Can you hear it
Can you feel it now
Can you feel it
Fall off the Earth then
I'll be able to sleep
Your situation means nothing to me
Dark thoughts in the night
Screaming kill, kill
The lyrics of Sleep Talk's song "Kill" delve into the theme of anger and resentment towards someone who lacks empathy and understanding. The singer sits on their bed, feeling frustrated and helpless as they stare at the ceiling, while nothing seems to affect or move the person they address. They find themselves replaying the words they heard before, which filled their heart with anger and made their blood boil.
The lyrics suggest a disconnection between the singer and the person they are addressing. They emphasize that the situation of the other person holds no significance or importance to them, reflecting their lack of empathy. In their dark thoughts during the night, the singer expresses a longing for the person to fall away, to disappear from their life, so they can finally find peace and sleep. The repetition of the phrase "Dark thoughts in the night, screaming kill, kill" intensifies the rage and frustration the singer feels.
In the chorus, the lyrics take on a more aggressive tone. The singer threatens to physically hurt the person, stating that they will hold their eyes open and make them watch. This displays the singer's desire for the other person to experience their pain and frustration, and their lack of concern for what happens to them.
Overall, "Kill" by Sleep Talk explores themes of anger, disconnection, and a longing for release from the negative emotions that consume the singer's mind. It paints a picture of a strained relationship where empathy is absent, leading to thoughts of violence and detachment.
