Ever wondered what it feels like to be haunted by your own ghost? In this lyrical labyrinth, City and Colour contemplates the existential treadmill we call life. The song's protagonist is stuck in an introspective conundrum, wrestling with the devils of doubt and identity crises. He’s not just "killing time"; he’s questioning the very essence of existence. Is he merely running from the specter of his past self, or was he ever truly present at all? Peppered with midlife reflections and shadow-chasing, this track explores a profound disquiet masked by beautiful melodies. It’s a poignant reminder that sometimes, life feels like one big, philosophical waiting room.
Killing Time
Lyrics
What if you're here when I'm not ready?
What if I'm not willing to listen?
I hope these devils never leave me
'Cause I keep taking what they're giving
Right now it feels like killing time
I'm running from the shadow of my former shadow's life
Sometimes I wonder if I was ever really there?
Right now it feels like killing time
Lately I've been thinking about
Just who I'm supposed to be
There are lines forming on my hands and face
Before today I have never seen
But right now it feels like killing time
I'm running from the shadow of my former shadow's life
Sometimes I wonder if I was ever really there?
Right now it feels like killing time
Killing time, oh
Killing time, oh
Oh
Right now it feels like killing time
I'm running from the shadow of my former shadow's life
Sometimes I think that I was never really there
Right now it feels like killing time
Killing time
