Killing Me Lyrics
I don't mind the abuse
It fills in time
When I'm not much use
But it's killing me
Killing me slowly
They all say
I'm too restless
But words cut deep
When you're defenceless
And they're killing me
But killing me slowly
There was a time when we were fine
And I could tolerate you
I do believe that you should leave
Cause I've grown to hate you
Should I be weak and turn my cheek
Cause I'm scared to fall
But I just don't know you
And you don't know me at all
I've been told that love's a celebration
But I've lost faith through frustration
And it's killing me
But killing me slowly
You paint my picture black
The joke's on me
And I don't wanna laugh
Remember the good times
Won't you bring them back someday, somehow
I don't mind feeling blue
If I could smile just like you do
And it's killing me
Killing me slowly
I can't go on alone
Pretending nothing's wrong
Maybe I just want to belong
Somewhere, somehow, somehow
It fills in time
When I'm not much use
But it's killing me
Killing me slowly
I'm too restless
But words cut deep
When you're defenceless
And they're killing me
But killing me slowly
And I could tolerate you
I do believe that you should leave
Cause I've grown to hate you
Should I be weak and turn my cheek
Cause I'm scared to fall
But I just don't know you
And you don't know me at all
But I've lost faith through frustration
And it's killing me
But killing me slowly
The joke's on me
And I don't wanna laugh
Remember the good times
Won't you bring them back someday, somehow
If I could smile just like you do
And it's killing me
Killing me slowly
Pretending nothing's wrong
Maybe I just want to belong
Somewhere, somehow, somehow
I love this song, it is sung so sad! This is one of Robbie's self-pity songs about people trying to knock him down, and he is open to us by saying it does affect him.
