St. Martin's Orchestra Of Los Angeles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bring me your loves
All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?
Bring me your loves
All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?
Bring me your loves
All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?
Bring me your loves
All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?

I thought you were like a dog
I thought you were like a dog
But you made a pet of me

Bring me your loves
All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?

I, I took you off your leash
I, I took you off your leash
But I can't, no I can't make you heel
Bring me your loves
Bring me your loves
We both have our rabid hearts
Feral from the very start

Bring me your loves




All of your loves, your loves
I wanna love them, too, ya know?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to “Bring Me To Life” by St. Martin’s Symphony of Los Angeles are open to interpretation, but one possible reading is that the singer is asking someone to share all their loves with them so that they can love them too. The repetition of the phrase “bring me your loves” emphasizes the desire for connection and intimacy, and the repetition of “I wanna love them too, ya know?” suggests a need for validation and reciprocation. The line “I thought you were like a dog / But you made a pet of me” could be interpreted as a metaphor for loyalty and submission, or as a critique of the singer’s prior assumptions about their relationship.


The chorus takes a darker turn with the lines “We both have our rabid hearts / Feral from the very start.” This could suggest that the singer and their partner share a wild and primal nature, or that they are both damaged or dysfunctional in some way. The lines “I took you off your leash / But I can't, no I can't make you heel” suggest that the singer has tried to give their partner freedom and agency, but ultimately cannot control or contain them. Overall, the song expresses a desire for connection and intimacy, but also acknowledges the difficulty and complexity of such relationships.
