Spinnerette Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a game to be played out
Amongst thieves of the heart
And the whores of the ego
Hey now, there now
Kiss everyone's ailments
See them rise up,
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Humanity is a deer in the headlights
The road is covered in blood
Free yourself with a dagger from above
A crossbow of faith
You sold your heart for the primal experience
Gave up on love for a medal malevolent
You fill yourself with the fire of innocence
A karmic stain will bring back through the gates again
Oh how I wonder what will become, of us
I'm just a girl out looking for love
Oh how I wonder what will become, of us
I'm just a girl out looking for love
You want in me what you see is a testament
You never know when you love what you'll manifest
I'm Joan of Arc on a mission avenge loves death
I'm gonna win I'll never give in
Oh how I wonder what will become, of us
I'm just a girl out looking for love
I'm just a girl out looking for love
I'm just a girl out looking for love
I'm just a girl out looking for love
I'm just a girl out looking for love
The song "Ghetto Love" by Spinnerette seems to be about the struggles and challenges of love and relationships. The first few lines suggest that love can be a complicated game, with different players and motives. The use of the terms "thieves of the heart" and "whores of the ego" implies that people may have ulterior motives or be selfish in their pursuit of love.
The next lines suggest that love and affection can heal and uplift people, giving them hope and making them feel better. However, the bleak imagery of humanity being a "deer in the headlights" and the road being "covered in blood" suggests that love and relationships can also be dangerous and painful. The lines "Free yourself with a dagger from above / A crossbow of faith" seem to suggest that having faith and being strong can help people navigate the hazards of love.
The chorus of the song is a simple plea from the singer, who is "just a girl out looking for love". She wonders what will become of her, indicating a sense of uncertainty and fear about the future. The singer seems to be saying that love can be elusive and difficult to find, but she is determined to keep looking and not give up on it.
Overall, "Ghetto Love" is a song that explores the ups and downs of love and relationships, and the resilience and determination required to keep searching for love.

I like this song, I was a huge Distillers fan, and I have no problem with this type of music, branching out to new styles is what being an Artist is.
