The Kill Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What if I wanted to break?
Laugh it all off in your face
What would you do? (Whoa)
What if I fell to the floor?
Couldn't take this anymore
What would you do, do, do?

[Chorus]
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you

[Verse 2]
What if I wanted to fight
Beg for the rest of my life
What would you do, do, do?
You say you wanted more
What are you waiting for?
I'm not running from you, from you

[Chorus]
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
Look in my eyes
You're killin' me, killin' me
All I wanted was you

[Bridge]
I tried to be someone else, but nothin' seemed to change
I know now, this is who I really am inside
Finally found myself, fighting for a chance
I know now, this is who I really am
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you, you, you
Look in my eyes
You're killin' me, killin' me
All I wanted was you

[Outro]
Come break me down, break me down, break me down
(You say you wanted more) What if I wanted to break?
(What are you waiting for?)
(I'm not running from you) What if I, what if I, what if I, what if I
Bury me, bury me

“The Kill” is a song that a lot of people would look at and think it’s about a relationship with somebody else, but it’s really about a relationship with yourself. It’s about confronting your fear and confronting the truth about who you are.

The exciting thing about this song was the fact that it w...

What have the artists said about the music video?

Jared Leto:

I think the approach really was that it was never for me to three and a half minute commercial for the song, it was really how do we explore this song in visual terms? How do we take this auditory experience and turn it into something where the images bring the song to a new place.
