A Candlelit Dinner With Inamorta
Asking Alexandria Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This isn't over baby don't believe a word they said

But then
She takes a moment to ponder
To wonder what could've been given another chance
To find the light in the darkness and way out of this
If only she could see what i could see
She takes a moment to stumble to her feet
If only I was there to hold her hand

If only she saw what I saw
she'd get out of this one
She'd get out of here

What burns the most is that you lied right to my face
And still i hold your hand to set you free

With eyes closed
Her heart breaks
And after it all
She brought this on herself

For me, for you, the fallen, save her
For me, for us, for good, save her
She falls before me

With eyes closed
Her heart breaks
And after it all
She brought this on herself, on herself
She brought this on herself, on herself

For me, for you, the fallen, save her
For us, for me, for good, save her

save her

This song's for you

With eyes closed
Her heart breaks
And after it all




She brought this on herself, on herself
She brought this on herself, on herself

Overall Meaning

In Asking Alexandria's song A Candlelit Dinner With Inamorta, the singer is addressing a woman who has been misled and manipulated by outside forces. The statement "This isn't over baby don't believe a word they said" sets the tone for the rest of the song - the singer is attempting to convince the woman not to give up hope, despite the falsehoods that others may have spoken to her.


The woman in question is portrayed as being in a state of despair, but the singer is trying to encourage her to see a way out of her situation. He imagines that if only she could see the world as he does, she would be able to find a way forward. The line "If only I was there to hold her hand" suggests that the singer feels powerless to help the woman directly, but is trying to offer her emotional support from afar.


The theme of self-destruction is introduced in the lines "She brought this on herself." It is unclear what the woman has done to deserve this fate, but the singer is desperate to "save her" from it. The repeated refrain "save her" shows the urgency and sincerity of his desire to help her.

I personally think it's their best work. definitely not the most technical stuff by any means but this entire album brings back the feels, no matter what anyone says Stand Up and Scream will always be a cesspool of nostalgia for me
