I Killed a Man
Tedy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So dope the games we play
They all burn and it's all insane
And intoxicate me with the poison, I feel no pain
Above me, in this nothin'
It's all the same to me-e-e
Don't need no sympathy
All I need's this misery, 'cause
You killed a man, I killed a man
You killed a man, you killed a man
I killed a man, you killed a man

What is this pain I feel, grind for -idk-
Under city lights -idk-
Sirens lurking near, feelin's everywhere
Tryin' to overwhelm me
I wish these seas would fall, fill my heart with grace
No time for apologies, how to make admends, no fucking way
You killed a man, I killed a man
You killed a man, you killed a man
I killed a man, you killed a man

Don't listen to the voices, you go insane
If it's for love you can take the pain
If it's for love you can take the shame
Listen to the voices, you go insane
If it's for love you can take the pain
If it's for love you can take the shame
If it's for love you can fade away
And these four walls were completely safe
When the time flies, we don't see the change
Oh I love the games you play

You killed a man, I killed a man
You killed a man, you killed a man
I killed a man, you killed a man





Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tedy's song "I Killed a Man" depict the internal turmoil of someone who has committed a horrific act and is struggling to come to terms with the consequences. The opening lines, "So dope the games we play, they all burn and it's all insane," set the tone for the sense of chaos and recklessness that follows. The singer's sense of detachment is evident in the lyrics "Above me, in this nothing, it's all the same to me." The refrain "You killed a man, I killed a man" repeats, highlighting the guilt and shared responsibility both the singer and the listener bear.


The singer's mental state is further conveyed in the lyrics, "What is this pain I feel, grind for -idk- under city lights -idk-." The use of "-idk-" suggests a disconnected sense of self, a loss of identity that comes with committing a violent act. The mention of sirens lurking near and feelings everywhere adds to the tense atmosphere. The lyrics "No time for apologies, how to make amends, no fucking way" reflect the singer's despair and the futility of trying to make things right.


The final verse of the song takes a more positive spin with the sentiment of "If it's for love you can take the pain, if it's for love you can take the shame." The singer encourages the listener to persevere and carry on despite the difficult circumstances. However, the song's overall message remains one of acknowledgement and taking responsibility for one's actions.

And intoxicate me with the poison, I feel no pain
These dangerous activities have become an addiction that I'm numb to


Above me, in this nothin'
I feel lost and empty


It's all the same to me-e-e
Everything feels monotone and unchanging


Don't need no sympathy
I don't want or need anyone's pity or compassion


All I need's this misery, 'cause
I've become accustomed to this miserable lifestyle


You killed a man, I killed a man
We've both committed terrible acts

If it's for love you can take the shame
Love is worth enduring shame or guilt


If it's for love you can fade away
Love is worth sacrificing everything, even oneself


And these four walls were completely safe
Being inside these walls is comforting and secure


When the time flies, we don't see the change
Time passes quickly and we don't always notice things changing


Oh I love the games you play
I still find our dangerous activities thrilling and exciting


Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Vocalization with no clear meaning

So dull to games we play
that all burn in a silency
and all the taming with your poisoni feel no pain
ingolf me and its nothing

You killed a Man I Killed a Man You Killed a Man 2X

What is this Pain I feel
Grunt,force,tears on a,city light in a quarter rain
sirens snucking near
feelings of regret tryna overwhelm me
I wish these days would fall ,feel my heart with grace ,no time for apologys I'd make amends all fucking break

You killed a man I killed a man you killed a man X2
