According to lead singer Adam Gontier, “‘Kill Me Fast’ is one of my favorite songs this band has ever written. It’s about ripping the band aid off. It’s a plea to someone who’s already halfway out the door, to just let you go. Don’t keep me hanging on while you figure your life out. It’s about the...
[Verse 1: Adam Gontier]
I've tried
But I still can't read your mind
Wonder if there was a sign
That somehow slipped me by
[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gontier]
If you're right at the edge or you found someone else
Let me know, oh
[Chorus: Adam Gontier]
Tell me when it's over, don't make me ask
Come a little closer and break me like glass
If you're planning to go, just don't leave any hope that you're ever coming back
Tell me when it's over, kill me quick, kill me fast
[Verse 2: Matt Walst, Neil Sanderson]
I'll stay
Sleeping in the bed we made
And I hope you know I'll wait (Oh)
Never love no one again, not again
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Walst]
If you're just at the start and I'm still in the dark
Let me know, oh
[Chorus: Adam Gontier]
And just tell me when it's over, don't make me ask
Come a little closer and break me like glass
If you're planning to go, just don't leave any hope that you're ever coming back
Tell me when it's over, kill me quick, kill me fast
[Bridge: Adam Gontier & Matt Walst, Matt Walst, Adam Gontier]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah (Oh)
Go and take what you want
Was it me all along?
Yeah, I know
I know
[Chorus: Adam Gontier, Adam Gontier & Matt Walst]
But tell me when it's over, don't make me ask
Come a little closer and break me like glass
If you're planning to go, just don't leave any hope, that you're ever coming back
Tell me when It's over, kill me quick, kill me fast
[Outro: Matt Walst, Matt Walst & Adam Gontier]
(Ah) Kill me quick, kill me fast
(Ah) Kill me quick, kill me fast
