Kill Rhythm Lyrics
I wanna fire a gun - show me
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
A deep disguise
Five years of nothing good
Still screaming
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
Kill rhythm
Deep feelings, I'm keeping, still dreaming
Now, my secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
I wanna walk on air - show me
It's gonna feel so rare - show me
Don't wanna look suspicious or undone
But I really think this rhythm is the only one
Five years of nothing good
And still screaming
Shout, get this secret out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep feelings, I'm keeping, cold comfort,
Shout - this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
I wanna fire the gun - show me
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
To kill this guy
Finalize the rhythm
The rhythm
Deep feelings I'm seeking, kill rhythm
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
A deep disguise
Still screaming
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
Kill rhythm
Now, my secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
It's gonna feel so rare - show me
Don't wanna look suspicious or undone
But I really think this rhythm is the only one
And still screaming
Shout, get this secret out
Deep, distant and pure
Shout - this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
To kill this guy
The rhythm
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure

Relistening to this brilliant album all these years later... I take Kill Rhythm's lyrics as the rumination of someone who, over the course of the past five dark years, has become consumed ("really think this rhythm is the only one") with committing a murder.

This song could be about the feelings of someone who's stuck in a rut, "Five years of nothing good", so they need to change the rhythm of their present life, kill rhythm. Killing or a death could also be a metaphor for change.
