“Murder” deals with death of a different kind, the painful ending of a longterm relationship and part of the moving on process.
“I had been living alone in a house that I used to share with my ex, so the lyrics were inspired by all of the things she left behind. One day I literally packed everything...
[Verse 1]
I put you in a box on the floor of my closet last Thursday
Every piece of you held a unique place in my heart
You called me a murderer, you know it weighs my conscience
I always seem to get in the way so I'll just tear it apart
I'm surprised you didn't think I'd tear it apart
[Chorus]
Like it meant nothing at all
Like it meant nothing at all
[Verse 2]
I hope you burn all of my records
I hope your friends spit on my name and call me a fool
I hope that you meet someone who treats you better than I did
I hope that you meet someone half as great as you are
Then I'll fade away like I meant nothing at all
[Chorus]
Like I meant nothing at all
Like I meant nothing at all
[Bridge]
I think I ought to sleep for days, turn off
[Chorus]
Like I meant nothing at all
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
Like I meant nothing at all
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
Like I meant nothing at all
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
(Like I meant nothing, like I meant nothing at all)
