The Kill Lyrics
Lyrics from live performances

[Verse 1]
One of these days, I’m gonna wake up smiling
One of these days, I’m gonna cry
When all of the years start to blend in together
I watch them disappear in your eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Remember the days we used to drive upstate
Singing indie rock songs in the car
You wore your fresh leather and blamed it on the weather
For being the reason you werе

[Chorus]
So difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but I lovеd you still
You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn’t fill
The shoes you laid out for me from girls that came before
I was all the way in, you were halfway out the door
Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill
And you were going in for the kill
And you were going in for the kill

[Verse 2]
One of these days, I’m gonna wake up fresh
And wipe all the past from my eyes
Curl up next to you in tall grass, sunshine
And wrap my body’s shape ’round your side

[Pre-Chorus]
Remember the days we used to ideate
About what we would do all our lives
I’d be a singer and an old bourbon drinker
Oh, and we’d have a band on the side

[Chorus]
Oh, I know I was so difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but you loved me still
I kept your secrets and stole your weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn’t fill
The shoes I laid out for you from guys that came before
You were all the way in, I was halfway out the door
Oh, you were an animal making your way up the hill
And I was going in for the kill

[Bridge]
Oh, all of our lives
Was worth it
Ooh, we were just wasting time
‘Cause we were hurting
But I know that you know that I know you best
And I know that we both can forget about all the rest
If we just can
Admit that

[Chorus]
We both were so difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but I loved you still
You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn’t fill
The shoes you laid out for me from girls that came before
I was all the way in, you were halfway out the door
Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill
And you were going in for the kill
Oh, I was going in for the kill

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
We were going in for the kill
