Apocalyptic
Halestorm / Halestorm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wear my nine-inch heels when we go to bed
I paint the color of my lips blood red
I get so animal like never before
So you press play and I hit record

'Cause we're dysfunctional physical
Always slamming doors
You're a bitch, throwing fits
Always waging wars
Me and you
Sad but true
We're not us anymore
But there's still one thing we're good for

I'll give you one last night
So make it twisted
Give you one last shot, go on and hit it
Give you one last time to make me miss it
Baby, love me apocalyptic
Come on!

Give me a red hand print right across my ass
I'm leaving scratches up and down your back
Throw me against the wall, bite me on my neck
Like end of the world, break-up sex

'Cause we're dysfunctional physical
Always slamming doors
You're a bitch, throwing fits
Always waging wars
Me and you
Sad but true
We're not us anymore
But there's still one thing we're good for

I'll give you one last night
So make it twisted
Give you one last shot
Go on and hit it
Give you one last time
To make me miss it
Baby, love me apocalyptic

I'll give you one last night
So make it twisted
Give you one last shot
Go on and hit it
Give you one last time
To make me miss it
Baby, love me apocalyptic

Oh
'Cause no one does it better
No one knows me better
Oh
'Cause nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
It's now or never

I'll give you one last night
So make it twisted
Give you one last shot
Go on and hit it
Give you one last time
To make me miss it
Baby, love me apocalyptic

I'll give you one last night
So make it twisted
Give you one last shot
Go on and hit it
Give you one last time
To make me miss it
Baby, love me apocalyptic
Come on

Baby, love me apocalyptic




Come on
Baby, love me apocalyptic

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Halestorm's "Apocalyptic" depict a sexually charged and tumultuous relationship that is headed towards a bitter end. The singer of the song is determined to make the most of their last night with their partner, whom they describe as a "bitch" who is always "throwing fits" and "waging wars". The sex is rough and intense, with the singer requesting their partner to leave a "red hand print" on their ass, and urging them to bite them on their neck. The chorus repeats the idea of this being their last night together, and the singer is trying to make it count.


The lyrics suggest that despite their dysfunction, the physical connection between the couple is still strong, and it is the one thing they are "good for". The use of the word "apocalyptic" in the chorus adds to the sense of finality and urgency in the singer's desire to make this last night memorable. The overall tone of the song is one of defiance and a refusal to let go of the passion that still exists between the two even though the relationship is on the verge of collapsing.
