Shelter From The Storm
Cueboy & Tribune Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They have sent you a letter, To come back home and play,
But to your dismay This isn′t your day For the happy fun time Has
Begun to fade Watch as we reanimate
Our corpses you abandoned We're dismantled
We′re mishandled But we won't be skipped and swayed Trapped within
These walls You left our souls to drip away The ink decays The walls
At bay But the reckoning has come
Today You say Borris has no guts 'cause you
Replaced it with mechanical strain
We′ve been tortured But we move forward
This disorder kills your day I AM ALIVE!
IMMORTALIZED YOU′
RE THE CREATOR YOU TRAITOR HEY!
THERE'
S NO VACCINE TO CURE OUR DIRTY NEEDS FOR NOW YOU MUST BUILD UP OUR
MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT TONIGHT BUILD UP OUR MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT
TONIGHT BUILD UP OUR MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT TONIGHT So you found all
The pieces To initiate the plan Our venon stains The night remains
But the ending is always just the same No gain Nod your head to the
Beat of death As you draw your last eternal breath Sensations Of an
Invasion Start to course right through our veins You say we have no
Brains We′re just cartoons for your portrayal To tell some tale about
A boat and sail But sure this inevitably unveils the fail Splashes of
Eternal hate Will flood the floor and clean your slate Now we're
The tool′s And you're the fool Our nightmare dominates I AM ALIVE!
IMMORTALIZED YOU′
RE THE CREATOR YOU TRAITOR HEY!
THERE'
S NO VACCINE TO CURE OUR DIRTY NEEDS FOR NOW YOU
MUST BUILD UP OUR MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT I AM ALIVE!
IMMORTALIZED YOU'
RE THE CREATOR YOU TRAITOR HEY!
THERE′
S NO VACCINE TO CURE OUR DIRTY NEEDS FOR NOW YOU MUST BUILD UP OUR
MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT TONIGHT BUILD UP OUR MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT
TONIGHT BUILD UP OUR MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT I am aware That your
Soul is now divine We care not to toil With unbroken chains So don′t
Toil with ours Like he did with our shining stars So prepare for
Adventure We're a whole new creature From the darkest side You can′t
Take away the pain we feel Created as
Monsters That come to life Come back to life!
So you've come end now Alive but dead inside The heart beats loud
You′ve join our crowd We are but punished serpentines Your life with
Him was fun But now the terror's only just begun Now
Come with me And you will see We′re A NEW BORN CYANIDE!
I AM ALIVE!
IMMORTALIZED YOU'
RE THE CREATOR YOU TRAITOR HEY!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Cueboy & Tribune's "Shelter From The Storm" depict a story of animatronic creatures seeking revenge against their creator, who abandoned them after the closure of the amusement park they were a part of. The animatronics call out to their creator, urging him to return and rebuild them because they are now able to move and feel. The song represents a shift in power, as the animatronics turn from instruments of entertainment to instruments of terror.


The lyrics are filled with references to the Five Nights at Freddy's video game franchise, which features murderous animatronics seeking revenge against their creators. The chorus, "Build up our machine, you die tonight," is a direct reference to the animatronics' demand that their creator build them a new body to inhabit.


The song incorporates a blend of electro-pop and EDM genres, providing an upbeat and energetic rhythm that serves as a contradiction to the dark and eerie lyrics of the song.
