Lyrics for We Killed It as interpreted by sheslikeohsoemo

We Killed It Lyrics
The girl can move
And she did
We were captives on a casino ship
Where the midwest lay out hours and burnt to a crisp
I spent a year as her hair-lip
but now I fall apart at night
and dream about our trip

But the first two weeks were great
I felt content to
watch the entertainment channel fornicate
With flashes of you maturning into staged, flawless masterpieces
Built of dreams I swore were memories

And I dream
I dream I dream

I saw the ocean envelop the sky and blot the sun out the day that we died
The former, the latter and all in between
They were vanquished by loki the fiend
But do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
The one that you loathed when he set you free?
Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
the one with whom you fell beneath the sea

Yeah we killed it,
We killed it all night
All night, yeah
We killed it,
We killed it all night
All night, yeah
We killed it
We killed it all night
All night, yeah
We killed it,
We killed it all night
All night

The first song that really struck me from the album

-not surprising as it's the first one xD-

I like the clean vocal break later on. I think that really works. The drumming is really soild for some reason. And we have some background vocals going on which is always good.

And song meaning?

Well seeing as it's the first song on the new album and the lyric is :

"
Do you remember me?"

It's not hard to work out
(good job on lyrics btw)

i think that, the whole album is like a transition over time, like in the church channel song he remembers a girl from the previous album, then he moves on to shiksa, then falling out of love then to we killed it, and then we have at thee when he talks about getting drunk, then the hangover song where he talks about fucking up his life but thats just what i see when i listen to the cd in its entirety.

The 'hair lip' line to me is so odd. Does anyone else find it odd?

Thanks,
I find the hair lip line odd as well.
Its a song that goes from the great feeling of relationship straight to what it feels like when a girl drops a bomb on you.
It's not really that metephorical but amazing.

I think by "I spent a year as her hair-lip", he meant that at the beginning she was embarrassed & destested of him/their relationship.. "But now I fall asleep at night & dream about our trip", but now she's comfortable around him & likes him yadayada.

Or atleast that's what I got out of it haha.

let me first say some of the lyrics are wrong.

I stole the ocean, and filled up the sky. I put out the sun on the day that we died.

I agree with gingerr, It's like a relationships pregression over time, and I really like what she thought about the album in it's entirety. I also agree with jacklyn07 about the meaning of being "her hair-lip". It makes me think of a situations in which for a year he's into her and she may like him but is just too embarassed to let anything come from it until she finally gives it a chance while on this cruise and it starts out well but on this trip she just can't get past the aspect of him that she hated enough to be embarassed about so on the last night it ends. the whole part about blotting out the sun, lokey the feind and falling beneath the sea i think is just a colourful little allegory for the act of her breaking it off. meanwhile "do you remember me" is sort of him asking if you ever really gave enough of a damn about him to even remember his name. Then i see the we killed it all night as a "and that was fucking that for us" sort of conclusion to the song.

Has anyone considered that "hair-lip" may be harelip? Just putting it out there...

I'm pretty sure the line is "I spent a year as her headlamp."
