It Kills to Know...
The Code Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So you think you are the only one who feels like you do
The only one that抯 been getting screwed
The only one who knows how it feels
To be so hurt, no one could feel like you

Just take one step back and open up your eyes
There抯 so many of us out here with the same problems in our lives
We抮e all searching for direction, how and which way to go
The answer to life抯 riddle, is what it kills to know

(Chorus:)
Life抯 not fair, nothing抯 fair
You said you listened but did you hear
The fine print reads, there抯 no guarantee
This life is what you make, but nothing comes for free?
There is a price

Have you ever stopped and listened to yourself
As you piss and moan from your self-pitied shell
There抯 a reason life has it抯 twists and turns
Keep your head up kid, there抯 so much left to learn厃ou抮e not alone

Just for one fucking moment stop and think about this life
How unfortunate it is that many never think twice
When they walk past someone homeless turn their head and walk away
Then go on with their lives?Oh Whoa is me!





(Chorus 2x)

Overall Meaning

The Code's song 'It Kills to Know' is a message of hope to those who feel isolated and alone in their struggles. The lyrics begin by addressing the misconception that we are the only ones who have been hurt or let down. The singer reminds us that many people share our problems and that we must take a step back to see that we are not alone in our troubles. The message encourages listeners to keep searching for direction and answers on how to navigate life.


The chorus emphasizes the unfairness of life and how we are all responsible for our own fate. It tells us that we cannot sit around and complain about our struggles because we are the only ones who can change our circumstances. We must take responsibility for our lives and make choices that will help us reach our goals. The song acknowledges that life has its twists and turns, but we should keep our heads up because there is still much to learn.


The final verse of the song is a powerful call to action. The singer challenges the audience to stop and think about their lives and how they treat others. The lyrics suggest that we must be aware of our own privilege and show compassion for those who are less fortunate. The message is clear - we all have a role to play in making the world a better place.
