Kill Me

"Kill Me" is a song by American rock band the Pretty Reckless, released as a single on December 7, 2012, by Interscope Records. The song was initially intended to serve as the lead single from the band's then-untitled second studio album, as announced by lead singer Taylor Momsen through her Twitter account.[1] However, after the Pretty Reckless moved record labels from Interscope to Razor & Tie, "Kill Me" was left out of the band's second album, Going to Hell (2014), although it was included as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of the album.[2][3]
