"Murder Your Darlings" lyrics
Murder your darlings
Just let them die
Throw out the trash
And keep the best ones alive
Pull out the wings
The strong will survive
The loss will be gone
But new darlings arrive
Murder your darlings
And murder them quick
Before you love 'em too much
And some of them stick
And you threw me out and you just let me fall
You once called me darling now nothing at all
How many murdered, how many gone
Somebody a loser wants somebody warm
Murder your darlings
It's not that profound
Like an unfinished song
They keep hanging around
Murder your darlings
Be cool to be kind
They'll always remind you
Should have left them behind
And you just threw me out, you just let me fall
You once called me darling now nothing at all
How many murdered, how many gone
Somebody a loser wants somebody warm
Murder your darlings
Just let them die
Throw out the trash
And keep the best ones alive
They'll tarnish the sparkle
Of the chosen few
So murder your darlings
Before they murder you
Murder your darlings
Before they murder you
So murder your darlings
Before they murder you
Just let them die
Throw out the trash
And keep the best ones alive
Pull out the wings
The strong will survive
The loss will be gone
But new darlings arrive
Murder your darlings
And murder them quick
Before you love 'em too much
And some of them stick
And you threw me out and you just let me fall
You once called me darling now nothing at all
How many murdered, how many gone
Somebody a loser wants somebody warm
Murder your darlings
It's not that profound
Like an unfinished song
They keep hanging around
Murder your darlings
Be cool to be kind
They'll always remind you
Should have left them behind
And you just threw me out, you just let me fall
You once called me darling now nothing at all
How many murdered, how many gone
Somebody a loser wants somebody warm
Murder your darlings
Just let them die
Throw out the trash
And keep the best ones alive
They'll tarnish the sparkle
Of the chosen few
So murder your darlings
Before they murder you
Murder your darlings
Before they murder you
So murder your darlings
Before they murder you
