Murder By Numbers Lyrics

Murder ascends its beautiful face and sides with me
Everlasting sound is sweet
All I wanted was to not be alone
But still you always leave me
I want your eyes fixed on me
So I can watch them as you scream
I won't remember your eyes
I won't remember the jealousy
What choice is left for me?
This is a war I must take
To wash these hands clear from choices that I've made
I'm not impressed
Still not impressed
Now you'll rot
I won't remember your eyes
I won't remember the jealousy
I won't remember your face
And I'll forever curse your name

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

it might be he felt jealous because his partner was talking to many other guys(possibly flirting), and he killed them and then her to get rid of jealousy and bad memories

Personally, I don't think it's literally talking about murder... Maybe revenge, or a death within their own mind?

Like, somebody, as Dylan617 said, could've cheated on him, or something like that. Betrayed him, maybe. And he feels like that no matter how much he needs them, they always leave. So he's taking his revenge, or hurting them in a way that makes them "scream", without actually killing them.

But either way, I love this song.
