Kiss of Death
Black Angel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I watched you glide across the floor
You gave me all of your attention
I hadn’t felt this good before
Outside the night in darkness
It matched the color of your soul
Your presence so electric
She’s back
She’s back
She’s back
And her heart is black
She’ll give you the kiss of death.
Your body glistening in the moonlight
The beads on skin meant nothing more
I should have heeded your intention
But I was blinded to the core
Once more your lips are upon me
The darkness cold upon your breath
I closed my eyes for the last time
As she gave me the kiss of death
She’s back
She’s back
She’s back
And her heart is black
She’ll give you the kiss of death.
The lyrics to Black Angel's song "Kiss of Death" describe a tale of seduction and betrayal. The singer describes a mysterious figure that emerges from the darkness, catching their attention and captivating them with their electric presence. Despite feeling like they haven't felt this good before, they fail to see the intentions of this figure, whose soul matches the darkness of the night they are both in.
As the night progresses, the singer finds themselves drawn to this figure, only to fall prey to their devious plan. The moonlight makes their body glisten, but the singer fails to see the warning signs, not heeding their intentions. In the end, the figure gives the singer the kiss of death, and their reign of terror and seduction continues.
The lyrics of "Kiss of Death" are a warning about the dangers of succumbing to temptation without fully understanding the consequences. It is a cautionary tale about not being blinded by one's desires and being aware of the darkness that can lurk behind a captivating façade.
