Killing Me Lyrics – Conan Gray
Killing Me Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Conan Gray]
It's 2 AM, hear the cellular ringin'
Got the curious feeling you're fiending for love
But the thing is, we haven't spoken for weeks
I love you bad, that's the problem occurrin'
Better love I deserve, and I'm hurtin'
But sadly, I worship every moment we meet
[Pre-Chorus: Conan Gray]
So you take and you take 'cause you know you can
And I chase as you're chasing another man
Try to break, see your face and I know that I can't
[Chorus: Conan Gray]
Oh, You're killing me
You're not making it easy (Ah-ah-ah)
Too busy deceiving and cheating and lying and competin'
To know how lucky you are
You're killing me
I just want you to free me (Ah-ah-ah)
And though I am crying and bleeding and barely breathin'
I can't let go of your heart
[Verse 2: Conan Gray]
I take your call
You say, "What's the matter?"
Then you lie to me faster and faster
You're such a good actor
I hear your car in the driveway
[Pre-Chorus: Conan Gray]
Now you're tossing a rock at my windowpane
Said, "I don't wanna talk, just go away"
But you claw at the locks 'til I let you invade
[Chorus: Conan Gray]
Oh, You're killing me (Killing)
You're not making it easy (Ah-ah-ah)
Too busy deceiving and cheating and lying and competin'
To know how lucky you are
You're killing me (Killing)
I just want you to free me (Ah-ah-ah)
And though I am crying and bleeding and barely breathin'
I can't let go of your heart
[Bridge: Conan Gray]
I wanna die, but you keep me alive
You're killing me, you're killing me
I wanna die, but you keep me alive
You're killing me, you're killing me
I wanna die, but you keep me alive
You're killing me, you're killing me
Fight to survive, oh, love of my life
You're killing me
[Chorus: Conan Gray]
Oh-oh, You're killing me (Killing)
You're not making it easy (Ah-ah-ah)
Too busy deceiving and cheating and lying and competin'
To know how lucky you are (Oh)
You're killing me (Killing)
I just want you to free me (Ah-ah-ah)
And though I am crying and bleeding and barely breathin'
I can't let go of your heart
[Outro: Conan Gray]
I wanna die but you keep me alive
You're killing me (Killing)
You're killing me (Killing, oh-oh)
I wanna die but you keep me alive
No, I can't let go of your heart
You're killing me (Ha)
