The Cats in Your House
Kisskiss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To save the mouse
Satellites told you now
They care less about you now
Tear flesh from skin
Like a sick painting
Kill the cats in your houseTo save the mouse as he wakes to life
They care less about you now
Tear flesh from skin
Like a sick painting
The lyrics to Kisskiss's song "The Cats in Your House" have a dark and sinister undertone. The opening line "Kill the cats in your house to save the mouse" immediately sets the tone for the rest of the song. It suggests that there are multiple ways to approach a problem, and sometimes the most direct way is the only option. The lyrics then mention satellites that have told the singer that their plight is meaningless, and that nobody cares about them. This powerful language illustrates the feeling of isolation and hopelessness that can sometimes come with life.
