Let Me In
The Coffinkids / Bob Miller and The Nightmares Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll hover by your window at night when you blow out the candle light.
In a place thats colder than the moon, i'll wait alone inside this tomb.
I'll think about your red rose cheecks and the blood flowing through you.
Like a wooden stake to the heart
With the good of grace you played your part
(and played me too)
Let the light in.
Everyday she's dressed to kill. Give me her crimson blood to spill.
Take these secrets to your grave cause i know it's hard to relate
Like a wooden stake to the heart
With the good of grace you played your part
(and played me too)
Let me die in my sin, Let the light in
Like a wooden stake to the heart
With the good of grace you played your part
(and played me too)
Let me die in my sin, Let the light in
Let the light in.

My partner fell asleep when she was supposed to let me into the apartment, so I connected to our WiFi and played this at full volume on the smart tv to wake her up. It worked.
