Ofelia K.’s voice and compelling songs are worn down to perfection and balance wistful maturity with a certain earnest and eternally young expression. Not quite pop, not quite anything else, the young singer-songwriter showcases her beautiful symmetry with her music somewhere between an unrepressed journal entry, a comforting arm around the shoulder and her smoky, shimmering glare, her eyes so knowingly staring into you. With spins from Annie Mac at BBC Radio 1, over 2 million Spotify plays, and features on multiple television shows, the world heard her starry eyed songs and asked for oh-so-many more.
With this latest single release, “Killing Me,” this LA songstress once again sets her sights on capturing the public’s heart with her tunes. As Ofelia herself mentions, “Killing Me is about the strange paradox that those who love you the most can also hurt you the most. Loving deeply makes you vulnerable and the highs and lows can be extreme.” And with Ofelia K, you know that can only result in pure musical bliss.
Ofelia K: Killing Me
Ofelia K: Killing Me Lyrics:
Black lights on all night
The day couldn’t see
Two mirrors were talking, just not listening
Angel with fire making a scene
Well, what were you thinking you’d shake out of me?
Is it all in my head?
Am I wrong?
Oh you’re killing me, killing me
Chasing my tail like a wild coyote
Strange little mess we used to play
Oh it’s killing me, killing me
How come this hurts? But I need ya so bad
Pull light so pretty, so shiny and new
You hid your weapons
I hid the rules
Three in the morning, got sandpaper teeth
Well, what were you thinking you’d shake out of me?
Is it all in my head? Am I wrong?
Oh you’re killing me, killing me
Chasing my tail like a wild coyote
Strange little mess we used to play
Oh it’s killing me, killing me
How come this hurts?
But I need ya so bad
Baby, Baby, It hurts, Baby
I need ya so bad
Baby, Baby, Baby, It hurts
Baby, I need ya so bad
Is it all in my head? Am I wrong?
Is it all in my head? Am I wrong?
Is it all in my head? Am I wrong?
Oh you’re killing me, killing me
Oh you’re killing me, killing me
Oh you’re killing me, killing me
Baby, Baby, It hurts, Baby
I need ya so bad
Baby, Baby, Baby, It hurts, Baby
I need ya so bad
It hurts, Hurt, Hurt, Hurt
Killing me, killing me
Hurt, Hurt, Hurt
Ooh, you’re killing me, Baby
Hurt, Hurt, Hurt
You’re killing me, killing me
Hurt, Hurt, Hurt, And I need ya so bad
