She Wolf
Sia David Guetta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A past lost in space
And where do I start?
The past and the chase
You hunted me down
Like a wolf, a predator
I felt like a deer in your lights
Hungry for that flesh of mine
But I can't compete with the she wolf who has brought me to my knees
What do you see in those yellow eyes?
'Cause I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
Falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
Falling to pieces
Did she lie in wait?
Was I bait, to pull you in?
The thrill of the kill
You feel, is a sin
I lay with the wolves, alone, it seems
I thought I was part of you
You loved me and I froze in time
Hungry for that flesh of mine
But I can't compete with the she wolf who has brought me to my knees
What do you see in those yellow eyes?
'Cause I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
Falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
Falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
Falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
I'm falling to pieces (falling to pieces)
Falling to pieces
The lyrics of Sia David Guetta's song "She wolf" depict a victim of a predator or a hunter. The persona in the song is lost or stranded in a situation, clueless on where to start to escape. The hunter, like a wolf, has already seized the victim and made her feel like a prey. The victim seems to be amazed, asking herself what the predator sees in those yellow eyes. She perceives herself as falling to pieces as a result of this encounter.
The song can be understood in several ways. It could be about a romantic relationship or a dangerous encounter in real life where a predator victimizes someone innocent. The "she wolf" could represent the primal instincts that the predator follows. The phrase "flesh of mine" can also be interpreted as the predator's lust and desire for the victim.
The lyrics suggest that the victim initially thought she was part of the predator's pack, only to realize later that she was just a prey. The persona seems to be mourning or regretting getting involved with the predator who, in the end, left her broken.
