Kill yourself
Suicideboys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not fair, I found love
It made me say to get back
You'll never see daylight
If I'm not strong, it just might
It's not fair, I found love
It made me say to get back
You'll never see daylight
If I'm not strong, it just might

They figure me a dead motherfucker
But I'm just a motherfucker that want to be dead
$now Leopard with the lead in his head, turning me into a sweater
Bitches use me as their fucking bedspread
I be the silhouette of a sunset
Smoke a cigarette while I compress my depression
Stare into the violet fluorescent lights, makes me violent
I'm trying to get the highest I can get before I overdose and die
My ribs are nothing but an empty cage
Black hole in my chest, big bang, Yung Plague on the tip of a wave
In my head, I feel like I'm a guest, so I'ma throw it all away
Because when I am dead I will be nothing decomposing in a grave
I'm matter, but I don't matter
I can feel my skull shatter from the dull chatter
Brain splattered on the wall
Grey stains won't dissolve, gonna have to paint it all

It's not fair, I found love
It made me say to get back
You'll never see daylight
If I'm not strong, it just might

Always boasting my emotions on how I'm so fucking broken
Think I'm joking when I'm talking about blowing my head open
'Til the moment you walk in, and find my body motionless
Wrists slit
Thoughts of $licky falling in an open pit, shit
Always burn my bridges 'cause I'd rather fall in ditches
If life's a game of inches, then my dick has been the biggest
And my goal's to fuck the world until that motherfucker's twitching
Lane switchin'
Same mission, to die and blame my addiction, bitch

It's not fair, I found love
It made me say to get back




You'll never see daylight
If I'm not strong, it just might

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Suicideboys' song "Kill Yourself" are a poignant reflection of the singers' struggle with mental health, addiction, and the overwhelming weight of existence. The opening lines, "It's not fair, I found love/It made me say to get back/You'll never see daylight/If I'm not strong, it just might," convey a sense of despair and resignation as they confront the fact that their love may not be enough to save them from the darkness within.


The next few lines are filled with references to death and the hints of suicidal ideation. The lines "They figure me a dead motherfucker/But I'm just a motherfucker that want to be dead/$now Leopard with the lead in his head, turning me into a sweater/Bitches use me as their fucking bedspread" speak to the singer's feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness. They feel like nothing more than a commodity to be used and discarded by others.


The song is also filled with self-hatred and a sense of isolation. The lines "Because when I am dead I will be nothing decomposing in a grave/I'm matter, but I don't matter" reveal the singer's deep-seated belief that they are insignificant in the grand scheme of things. They also reference the physical sensations of depression and anxiety, with lines like "I can feel my skull shatter from the dull chatter/Brain splattered on the wall/Grey stains won't dissolve, gonna have to paint it all." These lines convey the overwhelming sense of pressure and pain that the singer is experiencing, as they struggle to cope with the world around them.
