Wicked Game
Stone Sour Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Strange what desire will make foolish people do.
And I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you,
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you.
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
With you
What a wicked game to play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt that way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
And I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
With you
With you
World was on fire and no one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do.
And I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you,
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you.
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No I
No I
Nobody loves no one
The lyrics of Stone Sour's "Wicked Game" describe the complexities of desire and the pain that can come with it. The world is portrayed as being in chaos with no way to save it, but the singer finds solace in a romantic connection with someone who seems to offer hope. However, the singer is aware that desire can make people do foolish things, and they never expected to meet someone like this person or to experience the intense feelings they have. The lyrics express longing and vulnerability, with the singer admitting that they don't want to fall in love but are already deeply invested in this person. The repeated phrase "What a wicked thing to do" highlights the sense of confusion and pain caused by falling for someone and not being sure if they feel the same way. The song ends with a haunting statement, "Nobody loves no one," indicating that the singer's fears were ultimately realized and the relationship didn't work out.

I sing this song in remembrance of my late wife. She passed away February 11, 2023. It still hurts like hell, but this song fits us so well.
"The world was on fire and no one could save me, but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do.
And I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you."
These lyrics especially resonate with us. I think a lot about how we met and the early stages of our love. Fond memories that make me cheer up a little. What a time it was to be alive! To take each breathe, not for granted. I will love her forever ❤️😘

This was the last song my brother sent to me before he committed suicide last summer in July '19 ....... He knew I loved this song and found me the best version of it ..... When I listen, I hear him singing and playing his guitar.. He was gifted; this band is gifted.

Corey can cover anything and make it fucking beautiful, whether he's screaming for Slipknot, or singing for Stone Sour, this man has a voice of an angel.
@zaynes5094
Came from another cover of this saying Corey did a better job than Adam of Saint Asonia. I disagree. Not bad, just different interpretations of the same songs.
@juggernaut5281
Amen
@BeemWeeks
Truly a fantastic song. From Chris Isaac to Stone Sour, this is just a well-written piece of music. Songs like this transcend genre and era. This one here is my favorite version.
