For The Kill Lyrics

Headed for my journey other people want to come along
But I'm not surprised because I've come a long way
They said I wouldn't get here and that I won't belong

But now I'm where I expected and I've proved them wrong
But I'm not trynna rub it in I wanna get along
I outcast all the people that I've ever known
Because the thing is that I'm not good at letting go
Of the past, lessons never learned until I'm old
Dislike my situation for now I call it home
Faded Memories of the women that I use to know
Not to mention the women that I will know
People got dirt on me I hope they keep it on the low.(The Low)

(chorus)(La Roux)
"Im going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand [repeat]"

In a room full of haters in a life full of regrets
Really two different people, I'm hiding all my secrets in my mind
Never will I eject, never will I respect
The people who use to go and treat me like I was a reject
I'm playing this game called life and never will I reset
Homies introduce me to some girls and I'm like nigga we've met
Never have to worry about making plans for my weekends
Cause honestly I can't tell when it begins and when the week-ends
Over dressing everywhere and never have a reason
As of lately I just need a future that I can believe in
And a shelf to hang all the accolades that I'm achieving
In a room full of fine bitches..damn wonder where she lives
And I wonder who are those girls that she always be with
That be looking like models off of Victoria's Secret
But I never tell any cause these hoes will never keep em. (boy)
You fucking with me in my territory.. my future house is a trilogy(several stories)
(chorus)(La Roux)
"Im going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand [repeat]"

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 [?]
