Night Riots Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But she is always out of reach And she's my favorite thing to see Her
hook is my escape
A reflection of my fate
She is everything I need
Sink your fangs into me
Only for you I'll bleed
Can't you see that you could set me free So sink your fangs into meWithout her in a gloom
Cold sweating in my tomb
If she was only here with me She is the pale blushing moon That casts
the sun into my room She is the only light I need
Sink your fangs into me
Only for you I'll bleed
Can't you see that you would set me free Sink your fangs into me
Hear me call
I will wait
It's you I wait for
The song Fangs by Night Riots is a lyrical love letter to a mysterious and elusive muse who provides the singer with a sense of escape and a reason to live in an otherwise bleak and lonely world. The shadows that follow the singer represent the darkness and uncertainty that he feels without his muse, but she is always just out of reach, making her all the more alluring and desirable. The singer's favorite thing to see is his muse, whose presence in his life is a reflection of his fate, as if she is predestined to be the one who saves him from himself.
The singer pleads with his muse to "sink your fangs into me," indicating a desire to be consumed by her and united with her in a way that will set him free. His willingness to bleed for her is a testament to the depth of his love and his belief that she is the only one who can complete him. Without her, he is lost in a gloom, sweating in his tomb and longing for her to be with him again. The pale blushing moon that casts the sun into his room is a metaphor for the singer's muse, who brings a brightness and warmth to his life that he cannot find anywhere else.
Overall, Fangs is a powerful and emotional song that captures the intense and sometimes desperate longing that can come with love. The singer's desire to be reunited with his muse is palpable, as is the sense of hopelessness and despair that he feels when she is not with him. It is a tribute to the transformative power of love and the belief that it can conquer even the darkest of shadows.
