Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Enlighten me, my dear
Why am I still here? Oh
I don't mean to be complacent with the decisions you made
But why? Oh
In the back of my mind you died
And I didn't even cry
And I'm sick of waiting patiently
For someone that won't even arrive
Whoa
In the back of my mind I killed you
And I did not even regret it
I can't believe I said it
But it's true, I hate you
The lyrics to d4vd's song "Romantic Homicide" speak to a feeling of frustration and disappointment in a relationship that was once thought to be loving and strong. The singer is scared and feels like their partner has stopped caring for them. They ask their partner to enlighten them and question why they are still in the relationship if they are not receiving the love and attention they need.
The singer reflects on a moment in the past where they imagined their partner dying and realized that the thought did not elicit any tears or sadness from them. This realization causes them to feel conflicted and confused about their relationship. They are tired of waiting for someone who may never arrive and have come to the realization that they have become complacent with the decisions made in the relationship.
The turn in the song comes when the singer admits that in the back of their mind, they have actually imagined killing their partner and do not regret the thought. This admission shows the extreme frustration and animosity the singer feels towards their partner. The song explores the complexities of human emotions and the struggles that can arise in romantic relationships.

I'm scared, it feels like you don't care
I have fear that you don't have any concern towards me
Enlighten me, my dear
Provide me with knowledge or information, darling
Why am I still here? Oh
What's the reason for me to stay? Oh
I don't mean to be complacent with the decisions you made
I'm not trying to be content with the choices you made
But why? Oh
But the reason? Oh
In the back of my mind you died
I have thoughts that you're not alive anymore
And I didn't even cry
And tears didn't even drop from my eyes
No, not a single tear
None at all
And I'm sick of waiting patiently
I'm tired of being patient
For someone that won't even arrive
For someone who won't even show up
Woah
Wow
In the back of my mind I killed you
My thoughts are that I ended your life
And I did not even regret it
And I didn't have any sorrow for my actions
I can't believe I said it
I'm surprised I even spoke those words out loud
But it's true, I hate you
But it's the truth, I have strong dislike towards you

Dear person whoever reads this,
Hey, you, yes, I am talking right to you. I hope you will see yourself with the eyes I see you one day, because I can tell you have some awesome music taste :) You’re such a beautiful human being and worth and enough. I hope you know that you do only need yourself to be happy, I know society build up the standard that whenever you’re alone you’re not living a happy live. But in fact that is not true, if you start to realize that you actually deserve all the good things happening to you, you will treat yourself a lot nicer. I hope you let yourself rest, don’t beat yourself up over past mistakes, over regret, and over everything your mind wants to destroy you. I wish I could remove all those demons inside of your head because you deserve to feel happy. If you ever feel lonely then watch the sky, because you know, someone, at the same time is watching the sky too, maybe feeling the same way..I am glad you exist and I hope you won’t ever remove your own spot in this world, maybe you don’t feel like you belong here but, Angel, then build your home here. I don’t want you to leave this world unhappy. I want you to live every little second, I want you to feel alive, I don’t want you to see yourself just existing. You deserve it. Whatever happened, it’s not your fault, the demons in your head recognize that you have a beautiful heart, they want to take it because they have never seen such beautiful heart as yours, so why let them win over you? . You’re not selfish for isolating yourself, but you deserve to talk to someone. If you’re reading this than please never forget to breath and smile.
Don’t live up to other standards! It’s your story and not theirs.
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one.
I love you and send you hugs.
You’re so strong, you’re still here, and I am proud of you.
YOU ARE NOT USELESS. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE WORTH IT. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE LOVED. READ THAT AGAIN.
I AM GLAD YOU EXIST. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT A PROBLEM. YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT BEING DRAMATIC.
You’re not a burden to anyone, don’t be afraid to talk, to use your voice.
You’re beautiful inside out. Your body is beautiful the way it is.
Please don’t starve yourself. Please eat, I know it’s hard but you deserve food. You deserve to eat and drink.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. READ THAT AGAIN.
I WISH I COULD HUGH YOU RIGHT NOW, SO A VIRTUAL HUG WILL DO.
It hurts me to see you’re in pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you.
I love u I love u I love u I love u I love u please don’t go.
I am sorry that no one is hearing you, I am sorry no one is noticing that you have lost yourself. I wish I could take your pain away, it hurts me to see the pain in your eyes. I love you trough my words and I mean it. I just want you to stay, hold on a little longer okay? Please? For me.??
I hope you have an awesome day/ morning/ evening/ night.
If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you.
If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits.
If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re stronger than you think, I know you will make it :)
All I want for you is to stay and feel alive.
Now wipe those tears away and smile for me, you really don’t know much a smile can brighten someone’s day, do you? I hope one day yours will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
I need you here with me :).
Remember crying is not weakness, let it out as much as you can but don’t let the emotion control you by giving up. It’s okay, you’re here, you’re safe, you can let it out.
Did anyone asked you, how you are feeling today? If not, how are you really? I don’t think you’re doing good, but you will feel good at one point. Don’t give yourself up.
I am sorry you feel misunderstood.
But anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :).
Enough with beating up yourself for today, okay?!
- The stranger that cares about you more than anything.
I hope this is enough for you to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. I hope you can stay.
This is your sign to stay and treat yourself with love, you deserve it.
And in case no one told you today, again, I am so proud of you.
I hope you will remember my words :)
Until tomorrow, my friend :)<3
