Story behind the song
Some artists struggle with relationships because they are so dedicated to their craft. This song empathizes with those artists and describes their dilemma. What some women fail to understand that some men can never love a human being as much as they love something else. In this case, it's Music.
Lyrics
DEATH OF ME
written by peter kim
The darkest part of me
Is where the artistry
Pierces the armor that I wear to guard myself against you
Lovina€™ you sharpens me
Hardens the scars in me
I beg your pardon but I never promised you any roses
Ita€™s only an ocean
I just dona€™t want all of these emotions
Give me freedom
But leave the door open
a€˜Cuz youa€™re the face of my every moment
Youa€™re out of control (youa€™re like my own designer drug) x3
Youa€™re gonna be the death of me (a€˜cuz when youa€™re with me it just feels like atomic energy)
And here I try to be
Blind to the irony
Why would you lie to me when I was always faithful to you
I gave you privacy
Instead of rivalry
But now youa€™re silent when I need your reassurance and roses
Ia€™ve never been hopeless
You just need to show me where the rope is
Let me hang there
Until I feel coldness
a€˜Cuz therea€™s no point in tryina€™ to control this
I wouldna€™t complain if you had to be the death of me
You blow me up, like experimental chemistry
Ia€™m a mountain, but you know how to level me
Unsettle me, discombobulate me and then dishevel me
Youa€™re killina€™ me, slayina€™ me with jealousy
a€˜Cuz you cana€™t stand, someone else, sweatina€™ me
Ita€™s heavenly but I feel, like therea€™s a penalty
Howa€™m I gona€™ love you when youa€™re like a loaded enemy?
Youa€™re outta control, and Ia€™m outta time
Even though I been lovina€™ you since I learned how to rhyme
You wona€™t have to coerce, a€˜cuz Ia€™d admit to the crime
And it was beautiful, the pleasure was mine, baby
Ia€™m dyina€™ inside, I thirst for you, burst for you,
Ia€™d go into Hell, just to search for you
Endure the worst for you, just to be first for you
I couldna€™t speak a€˜til I discovered all the words for you
