Dark Horse
Our Last Night Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's rave

I knew you were
You were gonna come to me
And here you are
But you better choose carefully
'Cause I
I'm capable of anything
Of anything
And everything

Make me your Cupid, baby
Make me your one and only
But don't
Make me your enemy
Your enemy
(Your enemy)

So you wanna play with magic?
Girl, you should know what you're fallin' for
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm comin' at you like a dark horse

Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm?
'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine
There's no goin' back

Mark my words
This love will make you levitate
Like a bird
Like a bird without a cage
We're down to earth
If you choose to walk away
Don't walk away

It's in the palm of your hand now, baby
It's a yes or a no, no maybe
So just be sure
Before you give it all to me
It all to me
(Give it all to me)

So you wanna play with magic?
Girl, you should know what you're fallin' for
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm comin' at you like a dark horse

Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm?
'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine
There's no goin' back

Uh, she's a beast
I call her Karma
She'll eat your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer
Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shawty's heart is on steroids
'Cause her love is so strong

Damn I think I love her
Shawty so bad
I'm sprung and I don't care
She ride me like a roller coaster
Turn the bedroom into a fair
Her love is like a drug
I was tryna hit it, quit it
But lil' mama so dope
I messed around and got addicted

So you wanna play with magic?
Girl, you should know what you're fallin' for
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm comin' at you like a dark horse

Are you ready for, ready for (Ready for)
A perfect storm, perfect storm? (A perfect storm)




'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (Mine)
There's no goin' back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Dark Horse" by Our Last Night are about a woman who is being pursued by someone who is telling her to be careful of what she's getting into. The song is about the idea of playing with magic, or something unknown or unfamiliar, and the potential consequences of doing so. The singer warns the woman that he is capable of anything and everything, and that he could be either her "Cupid" or her "enemy" depending on her actions. He tells her that once she's his, there's no going back.


The chorus of the song is about the singer's confidence in himself and his ability to be a "dark horse," or someone who surprises people with their ability or talent. He tells the woman that he's ready for anything and that there's a perfect storm coming. He urges her to be sure before giving herself to him, because he knows that his love is strong and could be addictive.

Dark Horse (Portuguese Version)

Eu sabia que você viria até mim
E aqui está, decida se estiver afim
Porque os meus limites não tem fim, não tenho fim

Deixa eu ser sua amiga
Tudo na sua vida
Menos me faça de inimiga

Então você quer brincar de magia
Cara, você está brincando com fogo
Se é isso que você queria
Eu vou te vencer e dominar o jogo

Estou esperando, esperando
A hora está chegando, está chegando
Quando eu te pegar, te pegar
Não tem como escapar

Escute bem
Ela vai te levitar
Um pássaro sem
Sem jaula prestes a voar
Mas pense bem
Se você não quiser ficar, não quiser ficar

Baby, está em sua mão sua decisão
Apenas sim ou não
Mas tenha certeza antes de se entregar pra mim, de se entregar pra mim

[Ponte]
Ela é uma fera, pode ser sua Karma
Louca pelo seu coração como o Jeffrey Dahmer
Cuidado, tente não se perder
O amor dela é um asteroide
Te acerta sem você ver

Droga, acho que gosto dela, ela é tão gata
Louco estou por ela e que assim seja
Ela é uma montanha-russa, meu quarto vira uma bagunça
Ela é um vício, peguei não resisti
Quando menos viciei

Lyrics:
I knew you were
You were gonna come to me
And here you are
But you better choose carefully
‘Cause I am capable of anything
Of anything and everything
Make me your Aphrodite
Make me your one and only
But don’t make me your enemy
Your enemy, your enemy

(Pre-Chorus)
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for
Baby, do you dare to do this
‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse

(Chorus)
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm
‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine
There’s no going back

Mark my words
This love will make you levitate
Like a bird
Like a bird without a cage
But down to earth
If you choose to walk away
Don’t walk away
It’s in the palm of your hand now, baby
It’s a yes or a no, no maybe
So just be sure
Before you give it all to me
All to me
Give it all to me

(Pre-Chorus)
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for
Baby, do you dare to do this
‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse

(Chorus)
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm
‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine
There’s no going back

(Juicy J)
She’s a beast
I call her Karma
She’ll eat your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer

Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shorty heart is on steroids
‘Cause her love is so strong

You may fall in love when you meet her
If you get the chance, you better keep her
She’s sweet as pie, but if you break her heart
She’ll turn cold as a freezer

That fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor
She can be my Sleeping Beauty
I’m gon’ put her in a coma

Now I think I love her
Shorty so bad, sprung and I don’t care
She ride me like a roller coaster
Turned the bedroom into a fair

Her love is like a drug
I was tryna hit it and quit it
But lil’ mama so dope
I messed around and got addicted

(Pre-Chorus)
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for
Baby, do you dare to do this
‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse

(Chorus)
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm
‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine
There’s no going back

You guys have some of cleanest metal covers I've heard. It's fun making pop gritty but it takes serious time & practice (& good mixing ; ) to mold them into a clean & sharp sound like I'm hearing here. Color me impressed.

Our Last Night

Respect and thank you!

KeLuke

You are so right... The mixdown is soooo awesome. The most impressive thing I think is the clear midtones, where the singer, the guitarrs and the drums are!!!!!! And everything is sooo clear.

MJ Bautista

👌👌

Kalia Spencer

If you like clean vocals, listen to FLAW.

Riley Hudson

Kalia Spencer flaw is gross in my opinion

"make me your Cupid"... love this. sometimes the genderbends from artist to covering artist change the lyrics and i love how they have to find creative ways to do so.
