Emeli Sandé - Kill The Boy Lyrics

I walk around with a bullet on my tongue,
Killer written on my face
I know that when he finds out what I've done,
It's gonna take his life away

And his heart will break and once the pain will stop the beating,
Skin will turn as cold as ice.
When his lungs collapse enough will there be no more breathing?
I will gently close his eyes.

It's gonna kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy, tonight
Alright [x3]

I walk around with murder in my eyes
I'm gonna turn my baby blue
I practiced in the mirror hundred times
But still can't bring myself to shoot

See his heart will break and once the pain will stop the beating
Skin will turn as cold as ice
When his lungs collapse enough will there be no more breathing?
I will gently close his eyes

It's gonna kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy, tonight
Alright [x3]

I'm in the kitchen when he gets back home,
I hide the knife behind my back.
My hands are shaking when he smiles at me,
The only way he can react

See his heart will break and once the pain will stop the beating
Skin will turn as cold as ice
When his lungs collapse enough will there be no more breathing?
I will gently close his eyes

It's gonna kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy, tonight
Alright [x3]

Kill the boy [x2]

It's gonna kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy.
I'm a kill, kill the boy, tonight
Alright [x3]

It's gonna kill, kill the boy
Kill, kill the boy tonight,
Tonight
Alright
Alright...
