I Am The Killer
Thursday Lyrics

Tuesday wakes up silent
The singer might have faced a tragic incident in their life which made them silent and numb, leading to severe depression.

And there aren't enough pills to sleep
The singer might have tried to commit suicide by overdosing but failed.

And then it cuts out like mis-wired shortwave radio
The singer's mind is unable to understand or react to things in a proper manner, leading to confusion and chaos.

It's over
The artist might have reached a point of no return, where everything they once knew or loved has ceased to exist.

But nothing can change to ever make it right
The artist has come to terms with the fact that nothing can fix their broken life and that they have to live with it.

When you live in a nightmare
The singer's life resembles a never-ending nightmare, where everything is dark and gloomy.

It's written all over your face.
The singer's face shows the signs of mental agony and trauma they are going through.

And in a short time
The artist might have gone through a drastic change in a short span of time, which changed their life forever.

You're never the same again
The experience has changed the artist so much that they can never go back to being their old self.

The distance is streamlined
The artist might have become indifferent and numb to everything around them, unable to feel anything anymore.

Between decision and defense

Disorient the senses
The artist has lost touch with reality and is unable to comprehend their surroundings.

Loss of identity
The singer has lost all sense of self-identity and is struggling to find meaning in their life.

No one to trust
The singer is all alone in their struggle, unable to trust anyone around them.

Life runs through this trade
The singer is trying to trade something to gain a sense of normalcy in their life.

I am no killer
The artist is not a murderer, but their mental state might make them feel guilty of something they didn't do.

But I still hide my face
The artist might be ashamed of their mental state and prefers to hide behind a facade.

In the coming days
The singer has accepted their fate and is ready to face whatever comes their way.

I wake up every morning
The singer is trying to start afresh every day, hoping things will get better.

From the same dream
The artist's dreams might be the only place where they find solace and are untouched by the chaos in their life otherwise.

And then I kill it
The artist tries to kill their dreams every morning to avoid being disappointed and hurt.

But you can't change the letters when the ink dries
The artist might realize that once something is done, it can never be undone, and they have to live with their past.

I woke up on the sidewalk and everything just changed
The singer might have hit rock bottom and lost everything in their life, leading to a sudden change and realization.

Now the lights are blinking but I can't see anything
The artist might have become numb and indifferent to everything around them, unable to enjoy anything.

Everything is falling apart
The singer's life has completely fallen apart, making them feel disconnected and lost.

Crumpled paper
Crumpled paper might signify the singer's shattered life and dreams.

Crushed tin cans
Crushed tin cans might signify the singer's past life and memories, which have been destroyed beyond repair.

Broken bottles
Broken bottles might signify the artist's emotional state, which is shattered and broken from within.

Paper scraps
Paper scraps might signify the remains of the artist's shattered dreams and hopes.

We all look the same
The singer might feel that everyone around them is leading the same mundane, hopeless life as they are.

We all look the same

But I am the killer
