Killer + The Sound lyrics
by Phoebe Bridgers
[Part I: Killer]
[Verse 1: Phoebe Bridgers]
Sometimes I think I'm a killer
Scared you in your house
Even scared myself by talking
About Dahmer on your couch
[Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers]
But I can't sleep next to a body
Even harmless in death
Plus I'm pretty sure I'd miss you
Faking sleep to count your breath
[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Noah Gundersen]
Can the killer in me
Tame the fire in you?
Is there nothing left to do for us?
I am sick of the chase
But I'm hungry for blood
And there's nothing I can do
[Verse 3: Noah Gundersen]
But when I'm sick and tired
When my mind is barely there
When a machine keeps me alive
And I'm losing all my hair
[Verse 4: Noah Gundersen & Phoebe Bridgers]
I hope you kiss my rotten head
And pull the plug
Know that I've burned every playlist
And given all my love
[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Noah Gundersen]
Can the killer in me
Tame the fire in you?
I know there's something waiting for us
I am sick of the chase
But I'm stupid in love
And there's nothing I can do
And there's nothing I can do
[Part II: The Sound]
[Verse 1: Noah Gundersen]
Nothing ever comes like it did when you were in it
Just a memory of a kid, just a washed-out finish
Just a pain-in-the-ass Johnny Cash middle finger
No shooting up drugs, no quitter is a winner
[Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers]
Nothing ever comes like it did when you were in it
Keeping nothing for yourself like a stone cold killer
Now you're passing your people like a ship in the night
Looking to every stranger for a fight
[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Noah Gundersen & Abby Gundersen]
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth, your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
[Verse 3: Noah Gundersen]
Hoping that you like, that you like how you're living
Relying on the kindness of strangers that you will be forgiven
How many times, how many times will you sh*t on what you're given?
How many times, how many times 'til you shut up and listen?
[Chorus: Noah Gundersen, Phoebe Bridgers & Abby Gundersen]
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth, your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
[Break: Noah Gundersen, Phoebe Bridgers & Abby Gundersen]
Nothing ever comes, ever comes
Choking like a dog, like a dog
Open up your mouth
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound is coming
[Chorus: Noah Gundersen, Phoebe Bridgers & Abby Gundersen]
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
