Time To Kill
Youth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Run ten thousand miles and then think of me
I think you know the place we should meet
Don't worry if it's dark and I'm late
Run me out a thin wire
Help me to kill this, love
I'll meet you tonight at the bottom of the well
I'm not moving doesn't mean I can't
Flame on in my head
My best friend sucked his wife's blood an shriveled up
He was mistaken for sane
We move and groove and cut loose from fear
We should kill time, we'll shut it down
I've got a pipeline straight to the heart of you
Opening in my head
Bright glass on a chair being wound around us
The toiling of idle hands
Dripping, with guilt
A secret form of punishment
Axes through skulls
Shadow of futility
Endless, revolt
The shifting of light and shadows
No one is right
Nothing is solid
Nothing can be held in my hands for long
We should kill time
The song "Time to Kill" by the band Youth is a hauntingly beautiful piece that speaks to emotional pain, violent impulses, and the sense of disorientation that comes with feeling like time is standing still. The first verse speaks to the idea of pushing oneself to the limit, and the exhaustion that comes with it. The lines "Stretch me to the point where I stop/Run ten thousand miles and then think of me" suggest a desire to escape, to be pushed so hard that all other thoughts and feelings fall away. The next line, "I think you know the place we should meet," suggests that there is someone else who understands this need to escape, and who is willing to help with the process of breaking free from one's own limitations. The final line, "Don't worry if it's dark and I'm late," hints at the danger inherent in this journey, and the uncertainty of what lies ahead.
The second verse speaks to a more violent impulse, with the singer asking for help in "killing this love." The lines "Run me out a thin wire/Help me to kill this, love" suggest a desperation to escape the pain of a relationship, but also a willingness to hurt someone else in the process. The line "I'll meet you tonight at the bottom of the well/Just feel around in the dark until you get the idea" is perhaps the most chilling in the entire song, suggesting a willingness to engage in violence or self-harm in order to feel something, anything, other than the pain of love.
The final verse is perhaps the most abstract and surreal, with imagery that is hard to unpack. The line "My best friend sucked his wife's blood and shriveled up/He was mistaken for sane" suggests a loss of identity, or an inability to see oneself as anything other than a monster. The lines "We move and groove and cut loose from fear/We should kill time, we'll shut it down/I've got a pipeline straight to the heart of you/Opening in my head" speak to a sense of liberation or transcendence, though whether this is a positive or negative thing is unclear. The final lines of the song, "No one is right/Nothing is solid/Nothing can be held in my hands for long/We should kill time," suggest a loss of faith in anything, and a sense of nihilism or fatalism.
Line by Line Meaning
Stretch me to the point where I stop
Push me as far as possible until I can go no further
Run ten thousand miles and then think of me
Travel a great distance and in doing so, remember me
I think you know the place we should meet
I believe you are aware of the location where we should reunite
Don't worry if it's dark and I'm late
Don't be concerned if it's nighttime and I am delayed
Run me out a thin wire
Provide me with a way to escape this difficult situation
Help me to kill this, love
Assist me in ending this relationship
I'll meet you tonight at the bottom of the well
I will rendezvous with you later this evening at the lowest point of the well
Just feel around in the dark until you get the idea
Explore your surroundings blindly and eventually you will discover what needs to be done
I'm not moving doesn't mean I can't
Just because I am not physically shifting location, does not imply that I am powerless
Flame on in my head
My mind is ablaze with passion
My best friend sucked his wife's blood an shriveled up
My closest companion was consumed by his partner's emotional turmoil and withered away
He was mistaken for sane
His insanity was disguised as normalcy
We move and groove and cut loose from fear
We dance and enjoy life without being scared
We should kill time, we'll shut it down
We need to eliminate the concept of time and stop being ruled by it
I've got a pipeline straight to the heart of you
I have a direct path to your core being
Opening in my head
This passage has appeared in my mind
Bright glass on a chair being wound around us
Transparent material encases us, restraining our movements
The toiling of idle hands
The effort of unoccupied hands
Dripping, with guilt
Filled with remorse and shame
A secret form of punishment
A covert method of retribution
Axes through skulls
Blades piercing craniums
Shadow of futility
A sense of pointlessness and insignificance
Endless, revolt
A never-ending revolution
The shifting of light and shadows
The constant movement of bright and dark areas
No one is right
There is no one who is fully correct
Nothing is solid
No object is completely fixed or immovable
Nothing can be held in my hands for long
I cannot retain anything in my grasp for an extended period of time
We should kill time
We must eliminate the concept of time and the power it holds over us
