“Die For You” is the third track off Joji’s third studio album SMITHEREENS.… Read Full Bio ↴“Die For You” is the third track off Joji’s third studio album SMITHEREENS. The track sees Joji post-breakup from a past relationship and claims that' he hopes his lover is getting everything that he couldn’t provide for while at the same time showing his love for her while saying “I’d still die for you”.

The song's title is notable as the ninth track off Joji’s debut album ’‘R.I.P’‘ has a chorus that features the line “I would die for you” being repeated several times.

The song's existence dates back to August 9, 2022 when fans would discover the song being registered through ASCAP prompting fans to suspect the song was an upcoming song off an (at the time) unknown project.

On August 28, 2022, two days after Joji would announce the release date for his third studio album ‘'SMITHEREENS’‘, the albums Apple Music page would list the credits of the album’s third song with the same credits as found on ASCAP confirming that the suspected song would be releasing.

On October 14, 2022 the track would be revealed alongside the rest of the tracklist through Deezer and was finally confirmed with certainty as the third track off the album.

On October 20, 2022 the track would be teased in a 20-second social media post announcing the official tracklist for SMITHEREENS. This snippet would be confirmed as ’‘Die For You’‘ by the song's co-writer and co-producer Taylor Dexter on Twitter.

Die For You
Joji Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Swear I couldn't sleep a wink last night
No point in turnin' off the lights
Not the same without your head on my shoulders
Growin' pains, but I don't wanna get older
Almost like we left it all on read
Couple feelings never laid to rest
Didn't know that the party was over
And it's true that I need you here closer

Burning photos
Had to learn to let go
I used to be
Somebody in another skin (another skin)

I heard that you're happy without me
And I hope it's true
(I hope, I hope it's true)
It kills me a little, that's okay
'Cause I'd die for you
You know I'd still die for you

I hope you're getting everything you needed (needed)
Found the puzzle piece and feel completed (completed)
Just wanted you to know every reason
Hope you really know that I mean that
I couldn't see
The forest from the trees
Only time we speak
Is in my dreams

Overall Meaning

In the song "Die For You" by Joji, he talks about his emotions after a breakup. The first verse of the song shows Joji's inability to sleep; he is struggling to turn off the lights because he is missing his former partner. He expresses his fear of growing older, noting that the separation caused him "growin' pains." The couple never dealt with their feelings, and now, the unspoken feelings have grown, resulting in the "Couple feelings never laid to rest" line. Joji did not realize that their relationship was over, leading him to feel lost and incomplete. He needs his former partner, possibly a metaphor for the feeling of loss or emptiness.

In the second verse, Joji is burning photos, indicating that he has realized it is time to move on; he is letting go of their memories. Joji used to be someone else while he was with his partner, implying that he has grown as an individual through the breakup. He then conveys that he hears that his ex-partner is happy without him, and as much as it hurts him, he hopes it is true. He ends the song by confessing that he would die for his ex-partner, and he still has feelings for them. Ultimately, Joji is struggling to come to terms with the breakup and still resonates with the pain of losing his partner.

And it's true that I need you, get closer

Ever since Joji started doing tracks like Like You Do, have you noticed he's been doing so many more piano compositions? Glimpse Of Us, Yukon (Interlude), Die For You, and they all turn out so beautiful. He's truly found a working formula and I love the direction George's music is going in, I hope we keep getting more like this.

[Verse 1]
Swear I couldn't sleep a wink last night
No point in turning off the lights
Not the same without your head on my shoulders
Growing pains, but I don't wanna get older
Almost like we left it all on read
A couple feelings that were laid to rest
Didn't know that the party was over
And it's true that I need you, get closer

[Chorus]
Burning photos, had to learn to let go
I used to weep
Somebody in another skin (Another skin)
I heard that you're happy without me
And I hope it's true (I hope, I hope it's true)
It kills me a little, that's okay
'Cause I'd die for you
You know I'd still die for you

[Verse 2]
I hope you're getting everything you needed
Found the puzzle piece and feel completed
Just wanted you to know every reason
Hope you really know that I mean that
I couldn't see the forest from the trees
The only time we speak is in my dreams

[Chorus]
Burning photos, had to learn to let go
I used to weep
Somebody in another skin (Another skin)
I heard that you're happy without me
And I hope it's true (I hope, I hope it's true)
It kills me a little, that's okay

I feel like I've returned to this every month since it's released. The "music video" has always captivated me. Interestingly, there's no classification in the title that says "Music Video" or "Official Video", as if they're nodding to this being a clip compilation of stock footage. Nonetheless, I consider it my favorite music video of all time. It perfectly represents the art of pairing visuals with audio, and of capturing a vibe. This marriage of visual and sonic aesthetic is something I'd strive for as a musician or artist. The footage, in particular. Explosions and flames and harsh weather..... animals minding their own business in the dead of night..... dirt bikers. It's all so, neutral. Or rather, awe-inspiring. The instrumental of the song alone makes me contemplate the vastness and depth of our world, but utilizing footage like this (as if made to depict our world to an alien demographic to better understand our planet) couldn't have been a better move. I've always been curious about the thought process was -- for whoever created this. "Actual Objects" is all that's credited in the description. Would love to know what Joji's Team's prompt was for them. What the instructions were. And what aesthetic vibe THEY think they were trying to capture. All in all, this is a 10/10 work of art. By Joji, the song's other writers and producers, and the visual collaborators. I don't think I'll ever stop returning to this video.

@Call_Upon_YAH

Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness.

God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! For these three are one.

As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him.

Anyone who claims to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.

@Call_Upon_YAH

When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals!

The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil.
I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God!

Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.

I Know this song is about a post breakup, but to me personally it represents the feeling like everyone is having a better life without you, that you're worthless. Really though you aren't, you make others happy, and you should remember that if you were worthless it'd be a lie cause you're never worthless. Remember we're all here for a reason and its to have a chance at living life to the fullest, love yourself, and know that everyone you've influenced in a good way cares about you!

this song embodies everything a heartbreak ballad needs. it feels lonely, somber, hurting, utterly sad and unbearable. it still maintains such a warm and comforting feel at the same time though.

thank you for your music joji, you are a genius in every way, love you <3

People might said glimpse of us is sad but imo this one is much more sadder, deep, and emotionally hurt and even makes me cry. I really love his high note at 1:58 . And look at this video, so hauntingly beautiful. It's gave an unsettling vibe but at the same soothing. This one right here a gorgeous masterpiece. 100/100 for sure. This song is beautiful, and the video is beautiful!!

I really love this music video. It feels like a continuation from a Glimpse Of Us where the boys and the main character found a way for themselves to move on from where they were stagnated in their lives. Although the clips of destruction are also portrayed here I think it's supposed to represent the act of renewal, acceptance, and the spirited determination of walking on forward. I don't think any of them healed a 100%. It may be implied by the lyrics that they still think about their past lovers, but it's also viewed that they learned something about themselves and with their lovers as to why things didn't work out. Whatever reasons it may be it was enough for them to get out of whatever rut they were in to live the life they wanted when they were at their ultimate highs, which was the feelings of being in love, but this time it was a love that is for themselves. They are still doing the motorcycle, car, biking, racing, and exploring endeavors, but this time around it isn't to push something away, but to bring something into their lives. I think there is a clear message here. This thing can go against you or with you and it is a daily conscious decision we have to make.

What do we want to breakdown to move along?

"What do we want to blow to smithereens?"

I think the most wholesome clip is that in the end of the video the MC is walking towards the boys. In the Glimpse Of Us the MC was distant from them. What a nice detail to point out the growth in all of them.

@@loler4447 Yeah! I love watching and speculating about the Joji-verse. He got so many stories. This is kind of reaching, but there is also a scene where there is a dark cloud breaking apart and something seems to fall out of it. Is that supposed to be a call back to the alien pods from Your Man? I wouldn't be surprised. Some of the scenes in here, especially the dusty motorcycle scenes, have a similar style to Test Drive. I'm just having fun with it at this point.

When I first heard this song in my life, I was in college, and the girl I was dating at the time broke up last year. So when Joji released the song and this line, “I heard that you are happy without me, and I hope it’s true,” it felt like that moment was so, so, so painful for me. I felt so many emotions that I never had before. Joji is one of those artists who is clearly so close to my heart. Thank you for this song.
