Get Rid of This Life
Sleetgrout Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love your calls to hell?
Likes to ride in the dust?
Love to vandalize?
Likes to rip off the crust?

We can help you today
We fall into the light
We have some advice
Get rid of this lie

You're helpless louse
You can only just suck
All doors are closed
And they do not crack

We can help you today
We fall into the light




We have some advice
Get rid of this life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sleetgrout's song 'Get Rid of This Life' carry a rather nihilistic and negative tone. The opening lines, "Love your calls to hell? Likes to ride in the dust? Love to vandalize? Likes to rip off the crust?" seem to be addressing an individual who indulges in reckless and destructive behavior. The following lines imply that this person is trapped in a hopeless cycle of self-destructive behavior, as they are described as a "helpless louse" who "can only just suck."


However, the chorus of the song offers a glimpse of hope, as the singer offers to "help you today" and "fall into the light." This seems to suggest that the person can break free from their current state by taking their advice to "get rid of this life," which might mean letting go of their destructive habits and starting anew.


The overall message of the song seems to be that self-destructive behavior can lead to a dead end, but there is always a way to change for the better. The harsh and confrontational tone of the lyrics may be a reflection of the frustration and urgency felt by the singer in trying to reach out to someone who may be lost in their own chaos and darkness.
