Killin' It Lyrics
I go dancing on the ceiling sometimes
It's always fun but I get scared of the climb
Will you catch my fall, catch my fall
The notes I play put a stain on my heart
Some songs I hate some I hate even more
I act a fool, am I the fool
So tell me Eric does it hurt, hurt? (uh-huh)
So tell me Eric does it hurt? (not at all!)
I'm killing life like a one way ticket to hell
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
The words I sing burn my throat as they leave
Desperate measures for these times are in need
Do you feel the same, it's such a shame
So tell me Eric does it hurt, hurt? (uh-huh)
So tell me Eric does it hurt? (not at all!)
I'm killing life like a one way ticket to hell
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
We are not
Ordinary things
I wanna play it
A little bit louder now, a little bit louder now
A little bit louder now
A little bit louder now
I'm killing life like a one way ticket to hell
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
It's always fun but I get scared of the climb
Will you catch my fall, catch my fall
Some songs I hate some I hate even more
I act a fool, am I the fool
So tell me Eric does it hurt? (not at all!)
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Desperate measures for these times are in need
Do you feel the same, it's such a shame
So tell me Eric does it hurt? (not at all!)
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Ordinary things
A little bit louder now, a little bit louder now
A little bit louder now
A little bit louder now
I'm on a high going down, down, down
I wanna wipe that sad sad feeling away
Down, down, down
Down, down, down

This song is about The Columbine High Massacre. The Eric refers to Eric Harris one of the two gunmen who committed mass murder at their high school on April 20 1999. It references the high he and his companion felt whilst acting out their desires and disturbed thoughts due to the constant bullying and berating they felt. Dylan Klebold, the other gunman, was said to be ecstatic during the crime. Both young men committed suicide after murdering 12 pupils and 1 teacher. The end of the song describes how Eric continued to feel sad and down despite finally 'getting revenge for years of torture'. When they finished the mass killing, Eric accepted death willingly, yet Dylan enjoyed himself just a little bit longer before joining Eric in death.
