Nothing Lasts Forever
Natalia Kills/Billy Kraven Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You got a face like a doll
Will it last forever, no
I just want your beautiful
You don't need to think about it
Tell me things I wanna hear
Take the truth, I'll take the dare
Feed me lies and eat my fear
Cut the chase and get right to it

We might never meet again
(this might be the last time)
Kiss me like the end will end
(press your lips right up my spine)
Pull that shirt, I'll pull the shade
(dirty secrets, dirty lies)
You can be my last regret
My last regret

You're beautiful
Don't know your name
It's all the same
Nothing lasts forever babe
You take it off
I throw it all away
I gave it to you first
Nothing lasts forever babe
Cash, cars, girls, boys
Nothing lasts forever babe
Hot nights, bright lights
Nothing lasts forever babe
True love, first touch,
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever babe

You taste like I like it
Acid mixed with alcohol
Step me up to take the fall
Nothing I can do about it
Hey don't take it personal
Worth the pain, I'm versatile
Quick before they milk it all
No one gives a f*ck about it.

We might never meet again
(this might be the last time)
Kiss me like the end will end
(press your lips right up my spine)
Pull that shirt, I'll pull the shade
(dirty secrets, dirty lies)
You can be my last regret
My last regret

You're beautiful
Don't know your name
It's all the same
Nothing lasts forever babe
You take it off
I throw it all away
I gave it to you first
Nothing lasts forever babe
Cash, cars, girls, boys
Nothing lasts forever babe
Hot nights, bright lights
Nothing lasts forever babe
True love, first touch,
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever babe

You're beautiful
Don't know your name
Nothing lasts forever babe
You take it off
I throw it all away
Nothing lasts forever babe
Nothing lasts forever babe
Nothing lasts forever babe
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever babe
Cash, cars, girls, boys
Nothing lasts forever babe
Hot nights, bright lights
Nothing lasts forever babe
True love, first touch,
Nothing lasts forever




Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever babe

Overall Meaning

The song "Nothing Lasts Forever" by Natalia Kills/Billy Kraven is a distorted yet catchy track about living in the moment and indulging in temporary pleasures. The lyrics describe a spontaneous encounter with a beautiful stranger, and the sense of urgency to enjoy that moment fully because it may be the last.


The opening lines "You got a face like a doll, will it last forever, no / I just want your beautiful" suggest that the beauty of the stranger is fleeting, just like the dolls' faces get worn down with time. The chorus reinforces this idea with the phrase "Nothing lasts forever, babe", which is repeated several times. The emphasis is on living for the present and not worrying about the future consequences of our actions. The lines "You take it off, I throw it all away" and "Cash, cars, girls, boys / Hot nights, bright lights" allude to hedonism and being consumed by materialistic pleasures.


The bridge of the song is particularly interesting because it contrasts with the rest of the lyrics. It features lines like "You can be my last regret" and "True love, first touch", which hint at a deeper level of emotion and attachment than the rest of the song. This suggests that even the most fleeting encounter with someone can have a profound impact on us.

Tell me things I wanna hear
Just say what I want to hear, even if it's not true


Take the truth, I'll take the dare

Stop wasting time and let's get physical

Worth the pain, I'm versatile
The physical pleasure is worth any emotional pain that may come from this encounter


Quick before they milk it all

No one gives a f*ck about it.
This physical encounter is meaningless in the grand scheme of things
