In For The Kill
La Roux污 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Whether we like it or not
They say we can love who we trust
But what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
And what are feelings without emotions?
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
(x2)
I hang my hopes out on the line
Will they be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
They'll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
My words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Can this bridge cross the ocean?
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
(x2)
Let's go to war
To make peace
Let's be cold
To create heat
I hope in darkness
We can see
And you're not blinded by the light from me
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
The lyrics of La Roux's song "In For The Kill" exhibit a juxtaposition of opposites, such as love and lust, fighting desires and making fires, and being cold to create heat. The song talks about the complexity of emotions and how they can often collide with our rational selves. The first verse portrays a struggle between desire and control, with the singer acknowledging that even when they are trying to fight off their urges, they can't help but feel the heat of their passion. The lyrics then go on to question the concept of love without lust and how true love should involve not just trust but also the full range of emotions.
In the chorus, the singer admits that they are "going in for the kill" and doing it for the thrill of it. The repetition of this phrase suggests that the singer is determined to take a risk and go after what they want, regardless of the consequences. The second verse references the vulnerability of putting one's hopes and emotions out into the open and the fear of them not being received as intended. It also mentions the challenges of communication and the difficulty of conveying emotions effectively. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the singer expressing their desire for clarity and understanding in a relationship.

Because it can ignite more passion and excitement
I hope in darkness
I'm hoping that even in tough times
We can see
We will be able to find a way through
And you're not blinded by the light from me
And my strong feelings for you aren't overwhelming or causing you to miss important things
