Death of Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cut through
You put me on the floor with the one, two
And I just keep on spinning at the thought of you
At the thought of you, oh
Number one
With a bullet like you're coming from a shotgun
You’re lying when you tell me I'm the only one
Tell me I'm the only one, oh

[Chorus]
You got me now, down and out, it’s a battle
Bury me down underground
Your love's become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me
Wind me up, fill your cup like a river
Drunk on watching me drown
Your love's become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me

[Verse 2]
Breakdown
We're dancing to the music that don't make a sound
We keep mixing like the mud and a wedding gown
The mud and a wedding gown, oh
Nothing new
I fall apart at the very thought of me and you
We're running through each other ’til we’re black and blue
'Til we’re black and blue, oh
[Chorus]
You got me now, down and out, it's a battle
Bury me down underground
Your love's become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me
Wind me up, fill your cup like a river
Drunk on watching me drown
Your love’s become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me

[Bridge]
Number one
With a bullet like you're coming from a shotgun
You're lying when you tell me I'm the only one
So tell me I'm the only one, oh

[Chorus]
You got me now, down and out, it's a battle
Bury me down underground
Your love's become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me
Wind me up, fill your cup like a river
Drunk on watching me drown
Your love's become my enemy
You're gonna be the death of me
You're gonna be the death of me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
