Creatures
Hot Shade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All my life, it's been this way
They will not leave me alone
I know there is a way for me
To deal with them all on my own

I've been thinking 'bout the mysteries that won't let me fall asleep
But if they could set me free
I remember all the times when I couldn't hold them back
Let them come, now I'm ready

I am not afraid no more
Of creatures in the night
They can haunt me all they want
I know I'll be alright

All my life, they'll come for me
Even when I'm claimed on
Maybe they just need someone
Maybe they're feeling alone

I'll be listening to the silence every time I close my eyes
Getting used to what I've seen
I remember all the times when I couldn't hold them back
Let them come, now I'm ready

I am not afraid no more
Of creatures in the night
They can haunt me all they want
I know I'll be alright

I am not afraid no more
Of creatures in the night




They can haunt me all they want
I know I'll be alright

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Hot Shade's "Creatures" suggest that the singer has been haunted by some sort of supernatural or unseen force all their life. Despite this, they are now ready to confront and deal with these entities on their own. The lyrics imply a sense of empowerment as the singer declares that they are no longer afraid and that the creatures cannot harm them. The idea of being haunted by creatures in the night could be seen as a metaphor for the various anxieties and fears that people may face in their lives.


The first verse sets the scene, with the singer describing how these creatures have always followed them around. They seem to be a source of frustration and irritation for the singer, as they have "not left [them] alone" for their entire life. However, they also express a belief that there is a way for them to deal with the creatures, suggesting a desire for independence and self-sufficiency. The second verse describes how the singer has been pondering the mysteries that have kept them up at night, but is now confident that they are ready to let the creatures come.


Overall, the song is about overcoming fear and taking control of one's own life. It is a message of hope and empowerment that encourages listeners to face their own demons and become more resilient in the face of adversity.

Lyrics :)

All my life it's been this way
they will not leave me alone
I know there is a way for me
to deal with them all on my own

I've been thinking about the mysteries
that dont let me fall asleep
but if they could set me free
I remember all the times when i couldn't hold them back
let them come now, I'm ready

I am not afraid no more, of creatures in the night
They can hunt me all they want, I know I'll be alright

(drop)

All my life, they'll come for me
even when I am grey and old
Maybe they just need someone
Maybe they're feeling alone

I've been listening to the silence
everytime I close my eyes
getting used to what I've seen
I remember all the times when I couldn't hold them back
let them come now, I'm ready

I am not afraid no more, of creatures in the night
They can hunt me all they want, I know I'll be alright

I am not afraid no more, of creatures in the night
They can hunt me all they want, I know I'll be alright
