Nocturne
Wild Nothing Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wanna know me
What's to know
Do I amuse you
When the night is slow
Do your eyelids ever close
Caught spirits in your waking woes?

I know where to find you
I know where you go
And I just want to let you know
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all

Oh, you can have me
You can have me all

And you're twisted
What can I say
Your days are empty
And my tongue's decayed
And we're still just intently
One more night of your company

I know where to find you
I know where you go
And I just want to let you know
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all

Oh, you can have me
You can have me all

Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all
Oh, you can have me
You can have me all




Oh, you can have me
You can have me all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wild Nothing's song Nocturne appear to be a reflection on a relationship that is somewhat one-sided. The opening lines "You wanna know me, what's to know?" suggest that the singer is hesitant to let the other person in, but also perhaps a little flattered by their interest. The line "Do I amuse you when the night is slow?" adds a note of ambiguity - is the singer genuinely interested in this person, or are they just a source of entertainment when there's nothing else to do?


As the song continues, we get the sense that the relationship is not entirely healthy. The line "Your days are empty and my tongue's decayed" suggests that the two people involved are not exactly bringing out the best in each other. But despite this, the singer seems willing to continue the relationship - "One more night of your company". The repeated chorus, "Oh, you can have me, you can have me all" reinforces this idea of willingness and availability. It's not clear whether this is a relationship of convenience or genuine affection, but either way it seems somewhat unbalanced.


The line "Caught spirits in your waking woes?" adds a mystical note to the lyrics - perhaps suggesting that the other person is haunted in some way, or that their problems are more than just everyday concerns. Overall, the lyrics to Nocturne give the impression of a relationship that is complex and emotionally fraught - but also one that the singer is willing to pursue, at least for now.
