She Wolf
GUETTA DAVID/SIA Lyrics

A shot in the dark
Starting something with little or no information and uncertainty about its outcome.

A past lost in space
The singer has had experiences that have little relevance to how they feel now.

And where do I start?
The singer is unsure where to start processing their emotions.

The past and the chase
The singer feels that their past experiences have led them to be pursued.

You hunted me down
The singer feels that the other person pursued them relentlessly.

Like a wolf, a predator
The predator analogy implies that the other person felt a sense of dominance over the singer.

I felt like a deer in your lights
The deer analogy implies that the singer felt powerless or overwhelmed by the other person's pursuit.

You loved me and I froze in time
The other person loved or desired the singer but they were unable to reciprocate those feelings.

Hungry for that flesh of mine
The other person had a strong desire for the singer's physical affection and intimacy.

But I can't compete with the she wolf who has brought me to my knees
The other person's intense desire for the singer cannot compare to the intensity of their feelings towards someone else (the 'she wolf').

What do you see in those yellow eyes?
The singer questions what the other person sees in the 'she wolf' and how that person might be different from themselves.

'Cause I'm falling to pieces
The singer is emotionally distraught and struggling to cope with their feelings.

Did she lie in wait?
The singer wonders if the 'she wolf' intentionally planned to steal the affections of the other person.

Was I bait, to pull you in?
The singer wonders if they were used as a means for the other person to get closer to the 'she wolf.'

The thrill of the kill
The other person may have only pursued the singer for the satisfaction of the chase.

You feel, is a sin
The other person's actions are considered immoral or unethical by the singer.

I lay with the wolves, alone, it seems
The singer feels isolated and left out from the relationship dynamic between the other person and the 'she wolf.'

I thought I was part of you
The singer believed that they shared a special bond or connection with the other person, but now doubts that this was ever true.

I'm falling to pieces
The singer is emotionally broken and struggling to hold themselves together.

Falling to pieces
The singer's emotions have become too much to handle and they are losing control of themselves.

I'm falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
Repeated for emphasis.

Falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
Repeated for emphasis.

I'm falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
Repeated for emphasis.

Falling to pieces
Repeated for emphasis.
