All The Night Without Love
Perkins Elvis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With our kills painlessly
And we go all the night without love
In the darkened lonely corners
Where we place our drive-through orders
And we go all the night without love
Without love
On the magnetic athletic insole
She lets it go all its life without life
And can you imagine going to
“Got milk? dot com”
Do you go all the night without love
Without love
Well I once caused your cells to shimmer
And you once caused my cells to shimmer
Now we go all the night without love
Without love…
The lyrics in Perkins Elvis's song "All The Night Without Love" reflect a sense of aimlessness and loneliness that the characters are experiencing. The opening line, "We walked the aisles aimlessly," sets the tone for the rest of the song. It suggests that the characters are wandering around with no real purpose, almost as if they're searching for something that they can't find. The line "With our kills painlessly" adds to the sense of numbness that the characters are experiencing. They are going through the motions, but there's no emotion behind their actions. The repetition of the phrase "And we go all the night without love" emphasizes this feeling of emptiness.
The second verse continues to paint a picture of loneliness. The reference to "darkened lonely corners" implies that the characters are in a desolate or abandoned place. The mention of "drive-through orders" could be interpreted as the characters trying to fill a void with food. However, no matter how much they consume, they can't fill the emotional gap. The chorus repeats, stressing that the characters are indeed "going all the night without love."
The last verse brings up a memory or a moment of connection. "Well, I once caused your cells to shimmer, and you once caused my cells to shimmer" suggests that there was a time when the characters felt a deep connection. However, it's clear that this connection has faded, and they are now alone once more.
Overall, the song is a poignant exploration of loneliness and the feeling of being disconnected from the world. The repetitive chorus and melancholy lyrics give a sense of hopelessness and despair. The song leaves the listener with a feeling of sadness and longing.

We walked the aisles aimlessly
We wandered around without a purpose or direction
With our kills painlessly
Without remorse or guilt for what we have done
And we go all the night without love
We spend the entire night alone without any love or affection
In the darkened lonely corners
In isolated and desolate locations
Where we place our drive-through orders
Where we get fast food through a drive-through window

Without love
We are devoid of any love or affection

Now we spend the entire night alone without any love or affection
Without love…
Devoid of any love or affection

The man is brilliant. A couple of years ago, I saw him at Club Helsinki in Hudson, New York, and except for Radiohead, it was the best concert I went to all year. A strikingly distinctive talent, with very beautiful music. He can rock, too.

Who had the idea to make this video look like a CCR jam session? Even if unintentional, looks cool. Saw EP rock live on the 19th at the Troubadour. Quality musicians they are.

what an amazingly talented person, this is what America should be hearing from their radios, instead of the "marketable" and I will not call it musick. It is sad when an artist like this has such beautiful music to share and it goes unheard by the masses.
