Magdalena Bay - Killing Time (Official Audio)

LYRICS:

Spend my days patiently
Waiting for the night to creep, yeah
Chasing clouds, counting sheep

I don’t know why but we call it killing time
Always killing time
Always killing…

I don’t care if I don’t sleep
But someone better pine for me, yeah
Without love I’m without me

I don’t know why but we call it killing time
Never getting mine
Always killing…

I don’t think
And I don’t speak
But someone’s got it out for me, yeah
How much longer will it be?

I don’t know why but we call it killing time
Never getting mine
Always killing…

I’m looking in the mirror and swallowing the key
It only takes a minute to forget a week
Count up all the years that we spend asleep
If time is meant for living, why's it killing me?

I’m opening the mirror and swallowing the key
It only takes a minute to forget a week
Count up all the years that we spend asleep
If time is meant for living, why's it killing me?

I’m looking in the mirror and swallowing the key
It only takes a minute
Now I’m taking mine

There’s always time for killing, but never time for me
It only takes a minute

“If time is meant for living, whys it killing me?”

[mf_qoss]

My favorite track of the album. The bass line is extremely addictive and the drums going crazy at the end are pure adrenaline. The lyrics also are extremely relatable and double-entrendre for "killing time" as "trying to let time go by" but also "the suspense and anxiety of time passing that is killing me" is real genius.

[liambrophy]

Is anyone else obsessed with this one specifically

[garlicito]

In true magdalena bay fashion they end the song with over-stimulation and it's awesome

[LVYU-glyw]

"there's always time for killing, but never time for me"

[jshi]

After a second listen, I think this one is going to stick with me for a long time.

[annoyingorangefanclub]

3:34 to the end is the best part but its so brief

[ist]

this album kept me company through a bad year in my life, with a breakup, bankruptcy and losing my home, it was all around a horrific time,

but the music itself makes me so excited to listen with new ears in a couple of years time.

i know it will still sound fresh and the songs will have the added meaning of what the album meant to me this year 🥰

0:40 DUDE THIS PART GOES CRAZY WITH HEADPHONES

[jauestaopoix]

Jesus the heavy, HEAVY lyrics, but upbeat, sweet soundscape... You guys are my all time favs.

[nickh]

So far, this is my favorite song on the album. I'm sure that will change, but damn.. I adore the vibes and emotions of this one. It's so beautiful. And i'm loving the way they start of many songs on this album pure and simple, then build a gigantic noisy soundscape by the end that drones out on a totally different genre of music.

[nostrix]

I'm in love with the prog-rock feel of this one

[FriendlyMarmot]

What a privilege, looks like I get to be one of the first few ears to hear this! <3

[condimentking]

This truly reminds me of "Sheep" by Pink Floyd.

The rythm, the moog-driven synth and the electric piano have the same vibe.

I'm really obsessed with this track.

[qriofficial]

I can hear how Steely Dan influenced these guys, they did their homework fs 👏

[cloudcat]

Love the lyrics and sounds of this song. I don't know why but we call it killing time. So many layers.

[brkntrnsmsn]

Verse 2 bass is so satisfying, and they make the right call in toning it back for verse 3 so it doesn't outshine the vocal harmony. Nice!!

[hughjack]

This album feels so well suited to me and my specific tastes it's crazy.

[Umbra-qkut]

This is the apotheosis of music. There are only a handful of songs I have heard that are on Killing Time's level, and none exceeding it. I am not the same having heard it. Thank you Matt and Mica!

[LZRCuteR]

Never get enough is right❤. I don't know why, do we call this Killing Time??😅🎉❤
