“Exorcism” written by Kat Von D + Nick Long
Special thanks to Key Maher for staying up with me for an entire week watching every exorcism-themed movie that has ever existed (and man, oh man, there were some terrible ones) and inspiring me to write this song.
In Loving Memory of Piaf Von D.
Exorcism Lyrics:
The times you found me weak and took me underneath
I failed to cast aside the voice of disbelief
Come back into these arms is what you begged of me
Commit to sacrifice, I’m crying to be free
Didn’t they try to tell me?
They can’t hear me now
Before you I recognized myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
Now I’m falling turning black and blue
Before you I believed
The fire and light you choked and drowned inside of me
In toxic waves as far as naked eyes can see
I’d give anything to get it all back now that it’s too far gone
Everyone talks but nobody knows the shadow that I’ve become
Before you I recognized myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
Now I’m falling turning black and blue
Before you
No one, nowhere, nothing left to turn to
No more trying to fight for souls to burn through
Beyond forsaken skies
There was no place to hide away from you
With every step and stride to get away
My foolish heart and useless praying
Before you I could recognize myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Before you I could recognize myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
And I’ve fallen turning black and blue
Before you I believed

[@DARKROSE]

Waoo o sea otro nivel me encanto ♥️♥️♥️

[@DecemberRose27]

This is honestly genius lyrics and music. gives me 80s dark wave vibes but like also other good shit. its like the perfect package of all those pleasant sounds we love to hear and things we love to see from like the past up until now in the alternative world.

[@olyviax]

Forever Piaf!🖤🖤🖤🥀🥀🥀🥀

[@hellokittyhannahxo2834]

I know a lot of people dislike Kat but I love her authenticity, her style, her music, and her art. She is so talented and beautiful and I can’t wait to hear her album. 💕💕

[@thetechnicolorbatcave]

I think a lot of objectively bad things have been unfairly attributed to her. Her character seems to be better than that.

[@FelyFelycia]

Why do so much dislike her

[@jamesmusisca7547]

she's awesome

[@SangreDeTuCorazon]

[@JoeSmith-bf5tp]

She is no good, no talent

[@Bograz_]

Kat, this song is amazing. It was worth the time we waited for this. I can't wait to hear the full album. Rip, lovely Piaf. We love u guys. We love u Kat 🧛🏻‍♀️🖤🗡

[@johnnyestrada4687]

Love the sentiment towards your cat! I lost my kitty 4 years ago. Hurts so bad. Had her for 17 years 😔 the pain never goes away

[@justbecausethatswhy.3450]

I feel your pain, my cat was 17 too, we lost him 9 months ago. He was my absolute joy.

[@TheMerrysoul]

Honestly, i didn't expect it would be SUCH cool song!

Love it! I know our fur babies are at the Bridge waiting for us Kat. I know they are playing together and getting their wings of gold!

I've adored Kat for over 10 years and finally get to hear her soul 🖤 this makes me so happy 🐈‍⬛

[@kathrenavega9643]

I absolutely love this video! I love your voice, the aesthetics of the whole band. I loved how at the end you gave credits to everyone and how you dedicated this to Piaf 😭🖤 I got tears! Piaf is with you always! We are energy ❤️🖤❤️

[@Chowderchef]

I loved seeing your kitty at the end, and your voice is phenomenal! Can't wait to hear more music from you Kat!

[@dacringeyfangirl]

I already love this song so much even if it hasn’t premiered yet!!

Well done. Kat.... love your music and work. Been a fan for many years. Now here’s the kicker.....i am 74 years young!!!!! Love you and your family girl !!!!!!

I am so excited to finally hear this song. I already know it is going to be a master piece 🖤

[@Galaxywitch13]

Love you,Kat

[@scurvycrumpet6471]

I had the mindset that this was going to be something easy to listen to and not get hooked into my head, but was I wrong. The wait just to hear this one song was worth it, I can't imagine what the rest of the album sounds like. But I know if Dan from Gunship was involved..I'm going to lose my mind and it's going to be epic. Take a bow Mama 🖤💐

[@mojitsu71]

Can’t wait to see Kat and Prayers next month in L.A. Sept 30th! Check it out 🤘🏽

[@jimb0brite]

Love the beats and Synths.

[@sebastianrivera6976]

I remember her serenade and cover videos she used to do with her piano. To see her here now is so satisfying cause GROWTH!

[@kaari9528]

AHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH

[@Yahuahslights]

I can't believe how much talent she has. This song is incredible! The creative direction she took on this video speaks to my soul. I love the contortionist! 😍

[@roosterqmoney]

that hat with the cross punchout is super rad. ✝

[@sebastianrivera6976]

This song keeps growing on me and continues to be stuck in my head. Looking forward to the rest of the album!

[@harleyquinn2795]

I have been a big Fan of you ever since you started working Chris Nunez on Miami Ink, then on LA Ink, having your own books, and now a musician! I love the creativity of your music videos, I can tell you put all your time, effort, love, and energy into them. Your little family has grown so much over the years, keep doing what you’re doing Kat! Love your music as well, it gives me those 80s rock vibes! ⚰️🦇🖤🌒🌕🌘

[@kittyjustice9377]

I've been a fan since I first heard your voice on The 69 Eyes "X" Album in the song "Rosary Blue". That song came out 11 days before my twenty first birthday and felt like a gift from you guys. It really hit home for me during some difficult times. Thank you for sharing your voice, your vision, and all of your talents with us! I can't wait to see more (and of little Piaf too!).

[@demonalivefornow9680]

I love that song!

[@lochnessiemonster4793]

I was so excited to see Kat von d (thought she was awesome when I first saw her on Miami ink back in the day) was releasing her own album, and I loved Excorism right away. I'm not a big, I'm not sure what to call it but I'll go with 'electronica' fan, I like hearing drums and guitars and stuff, but I like most of the album. It's so good I'm sad it's taken so long for her to put out her own music, but I hope she keeps making music and maybe put in a song or two with some other instruments, but if that's not her thing that's ok. Thanks for the album Kat Von D

[@zitahamada3271]

I CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@pierreamador0410]

Omfg!!!! This was amazing!!!!! 😭 besides Billie, this has to be one of the greatest things of 2021!!!

[@pierreamador0410]

I hope you read this!! Omg!!! I just wanna say that your song exorcism is one of the best things I’ve heard/seen in a while!!! It was everything and more of what I expected from you!😭 I’ve been a huge fan of you since Miami ink and followed you through out the whole seasons of LA ink!! You’re the reason I love portrait tattoos! Which is why I have tattooed all of my favorite horror movie icons on myself! You’re such an inspiration! Heck!! I even wrote a book report on your book!! The tattoo chronicles! It would be a dream and honor to 1 day get tattooed by you! (I’ve tried for years btw!) lol I just wanna say thank you for the inspiring and fresh content!! Xoxo!
