Kiss Me. Kill Me
Useless ID Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me tell me something i would know
Listen to the cure on the radio
Think about the day you made me feel again

Love me in a way you can't describe
Kill me in a way that i'll stay alive
Light me up so i can come back in
Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss
Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss

Meet me in the dark after the show
I'll take you to a place they'll never know
We'll think about the day your happiness was taken away
Gimme gimme magic cast a spell
These past few weeks i'm living hell
Let's give it a rest and come back when it's time

Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss
Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss

(bridge)
Send me another letter
To be gathering dust with the rest
Emotions aside did we ever live up to the test
Why do we always end up coming back for more

Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss




Don't wanna kiss like this
With everyday we miss
