What if I wanted to break?
Laugh it all off in your face
What would you do? (Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh)
What if I fell to the floor
Couldn't take this anymore
What would you do, do, do?
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
What if I wanted to fight
Beg for the rest of my life
What would you do, do, do?
You say you wanted more
What are you waiting for?
I'm not running from you (from you)
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
Look in my eyes
You're killing me, killing me
All I wanted was you. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/0-9/30_seconds_to_mars/the_kill.html ]
I tried to be someone else
But nothing seemed to change
I know now, this is who I really am inside.
Finally found myself
Fighting for a chance.
I know now, this is who I really am.
Ah, ah
Oh, oh
Ah, ah
Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you, you, you.
Look in my eyes
You're killing me, killing me
All I wanted was you
Come break me down (bury me, bury me)
Break me down (bury me, bury me)
Break me down (bury me, bury me)
(You say you wanted more)
What if I wanted to break?
(What are you waiting for?)
Bury me, bury me
(I'm not running from you)
What if I
What if I
What if I
What if I
Bury me, bury me
This song can be about any relationship(j. Leto did say its about the relationship you have with yourself. )
Its about the things you don't like about yourself. Trying to change them, but you can't. (again, it can apply to any relationship, trying to fix something that you just can't. )
It's truly about some man and his girlfriend. They fight, or the relationship does not work out well. It probably happens every once in a while, and finally, the guy can't take it anymore and gives up. He is ashamed and disappointed in himself. [ this song is pretty much emo. ] anyway, he tells her to come and kill me. Just get it over with! Emo indeed...
Actually jared leto said its about confronting fears he said so himself in the making of the kill video ps for those who dont know jared is the lead singer
