I Kill Giants Lyrics

The end of June came
And took you away
We were all crying
Felt like I was dying

Black dress & black shoes
Tied laces for you
The saddest of days
Why couldn’t we save you?

Inside my head
At the edge of the bed
Where somberness lay
In your children that day

As goodbyes are spent
Holding on to what’s left
The saddest of days
Why couldn’t we save you?

Nothing but ashes
In the old fire place
With all of the memories
He has erased

Heavier heels
His mourning concealed
On the saddest of days
Why couldn’t we save you?

I Kill Giants

This song was written for singer Alisa Xayalith's late mother, who died when she was seven. "I called the song I Kill Giants after a comic book I used to read," she explained to The Sun. "That song deals with everything I experienced. Sometimes it was hard to go back to it. I was so young to have this huge loss and so that song has helped me."

"It was a vulnerable process creating that song," she added. "I had to go back to that place so it was great to have the guys around me as support. The pain is still very raw."
