Damned If She Do
The Kills渀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She damned if she do
She damned if she don't
If history hang hang hangs her well
Her memory won't

There's been a perception
Of sweet hearts passing through
Some of them left no trace at all
Some left her black and blue

She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs

She damned if she will
She damned if she won't
Some of them left in one piece
And some she damn near broke

And I am no stranger to the strange all his ways
What could be stranger than to be stuck outside your cage

She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she on her deathbed

She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she on her deathbed

She come alive when she dying




She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying

The song suggests that the woman has a painful and troubled past, hinted at by the line "If history hang hang hangs her well, her memory won't." The repetition of the phrase "She come alive when she dying" adds to the overall feeling of desperation and intensity that pervades the song.
