Kiss Me Kill Me
Useless ID Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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 theyll 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 its 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
The song "Kiss Me Kill Me" by Useless ID talks about the complexity of relationships and how easily one can switch from love to hate and vice versa. The singer begins the song by asking for clarity, wanting to know something they can relate to before they continue to listen to The Cure, a band known for their melancholic music. In the next line, the singer reminisces about a time when their love was rekindled. However, this love is short-lived as they ask their partner to kill them in a way that will keep them alive. The singer wants to feel something again, even if it means going through pain.
The chorus highlights the singer's frustrations with their current situation. They express a desire for their relationship to be more than just going through the motions each day, as they do not want to continue with the same kiss that happens daily. In the next verse, the singer asks their partner to meet them in the dark after the show, which can be interpreted as a surreptitious or alternative escape from their mundane lives. They promise to take them to a place where no one will know, where they can embrace love and passion once again.
The bridge section hints at the fact that their relationship is not perfect, as the singer reflects on the letters they have received and kept. Furthermore, they wonder if their love passed the test of time, leading them to ponder why they keep returning back to one another.
Overall, the song conveys that relationships are complicated - they can be sweet and loving one minute and bitter and toxic the next. The singer wants to rekindle the passion they once had with their partner, but also acknowledges the less-than-perfect aspects of their relationship.
