Kill Of The Night
Gin Wigmore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna lure you into the dark
My cold desire
To hear the boom, boom, boom of your heart
The danger is I'm dangerous
And I might just tear you apart
Oh, ah, oh
[Chorus]
I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
You're my kill of the night
Now you're mine
But what do I do with you, boy
I'll take your heart
To kick around as a toy
The danger is I'm dangerous
And I might just tear you apart
Oh
[Chorus]
I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
Oh
[Chorus]
In Gin Wigmore's song Kill Of The Night, the lyrics tell the tale of a streetwise woman who enjoys luring men into the dark to fulfill her own desires. She revels in the idea of the danger surrounding the situation, and the thrill of hearing the pounding of their hearts. She takes pleasure in the concept of tearing them apart, both mentally and physically. Despite the inherent danger of her actions, the singer enjoys the power and control she has over the men she seduces. She likens her latest conquest to a toy to be played with and ultimately disposed of. The chorus expresses her determination to catch and get her victim, while also showing her desire to taste his blood.
The lyrics of this song provide a chilling insight into the mind of a dangerous and manipulative character. The contrast between the sweet melody and dark lyrics creates an eerie atmosphere, which adds to the already foreboding nature of the song. This is accentuated further by the repetition of the phrase "this is a bad town for such a pretty face," which reinforces the idea that danger lurks around every corner.
