I kill all of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things
To keep me alive

I'm a face, I'm a name
I'm nothing like you are
How you love, just enough
So cunning, why am I still breathing?

So bite your tongue before you speak
'Cause there's no one saying anything
When all I want is something new
To make me numb

I kill all of the beautiful things
To keep me alive in a world so cold
I kill all of the beautiful things
To help me survive, can you save my soul?
'Cause I'm on my hands and knees
Praying up to nothing
All of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things

I'm asleep, I'm awake
I'm not here, am I dreaming?
Of a life with a cure
For this place, oh it's picture perfect

I bite my tongue before I speak
'Cause there's no point in saying anything
We're so far gone, it's nothing new
So make me numb

I kill all of the beautiful things
To keep me alive in a world so cold
I kill all of the beautiful things
To help me survive, can you save my soul?
'Cause I'm on my hands and knees
Praying up to nothing
All of the beautiful things
I kill all the beautiful things
All of the beautiful things

So leave me in silence, it holds me, I'm dying
I hate this, I hate this whole thing

I kill all pf the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things

I kill all of the beautiful things
To keep me alive in a world so cold
I kill all of the beautiful things
To help me survive, can you save my soul?
'Cause I'm on my hands and knees
Praying up to nothing
All of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things
I kill all of the beautiful things

All of the beautiful things
To keep me alive

    Song Meaning

    Despite what the title might infer, "Kill Beautiful Things" is more of a cautionary warning than a directive. Singer vocalist Joe Cotela says the track explores more of the idea of trying to fend off those darker tendencies in life.

    "'Kill Beautiful Things' is about the survival of compassion and love in the modern world," says the singer. "And how you navigate the path of life to not succumb to the evils of humanity. Adopting a 'fight fire with fire' mentality. The song shines a light on our struggle to exist with a conscious mind and good intentions against an overwhelming current of negativity and strife."
