Killing My Time Lyrics
I could stare at you for days
Why can't you fuckin' behave?
I know what you like
It's killing my, killing my, killing my
I don't want to go and sin
I got things I must begin
But I like your drive
It's killing my, killing my, killing my
This watch you bought now is broke
Why do you want to provoke
Every line I've paved?
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
All you want to do is tease
It's attention that you need
I haven't got time
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
[Pre-Chorus]
Leave me, baby, please, leave me alone
'Cause right now I can't call you my own
Release me, baby, please, release me from hold
'Cause right now I can't call you my home
[Chorus]
Baby, inside I die
'Cause the way you work, yeah, you know you got it
You know you're right
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
Your eyes unkind
'Cause the way you work, yeah, you know you got it
You know you're right
You're killing my, killing my, killing my time
You always seem to wear me down
I should know you better now
But you make me weak
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
You are crazy to your core
Just so hard to go ignore
I just want to please
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
[Pre-Chorus]
Leave me, baby, please, leave me alone
'Cause right now, I can't call you my own
Release me, baby, please, release me from hold
'Cause right now, I can't call you my home
[Chorus]
Baby, inside I die
'Cause the way you work, yeah, you know you got it
You know you're right
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
Your eyes unkind
'Cause the way you work, yeah, you know you got it
You know you're right
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
And oh, oh, now you got hold, now you got hold of me
You're killing my, killing my, killing my
And oh, oh, now you got hold, now you got hold of me
You're killing my, killing my, killing my time
You're killing my, killing my, killing my time
You're killing my, killing my, killing my time
You're killing my, killing my, killing my time
[Outro]
Don't distract me with your body (Body, body)
Put your clothes back on, I know where this is goin'
Don't distract me with your body (Body, body)
Put your clothes back on, I know where this is goin'
Don't distract me with your body (Body, body)
Put your clothes back on, I know where this is goin'
Don't distract me with your body (Body, body)
Put your clothes back on, I know that you are
Killing my, killing my, killing my time

The story behind the lyrics on “Killing my Time” revolve around a girl I was seeing, who kept distracting me from making music. My bedroom is my studio and she only wanted to stay in bed and make love all day. It was hard to escape and be productive so I inevitably I ended up breaking up with her because I wanted to focus. It was fresh on my mind once I sat down to write this song. She was “Killing my Time."

I felt like [my girlfriend] was killing my time. I’ve been working so hard at this music career for so long, writing so many songs, and now she’s back in my life and I feel like I’m hardly writing music anymore because I’m distracted. So I wrote this song, went home and showed it to her. She was like, “What the fuck?”
