Wild In Me
Yukka Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep on writing love songs
Because you want me to
I write something dangerous
About me and you
I think this one
You won't want to hear
It's about time I disappeared
And if you want to know
where I was last night
I went to a XXX show
And I got high last night
That's the bullshit
I make up these days
I can't help myself
I'm born this way

And I've got you
Under my skin
My sweetness
When will you give in

To the wild in me

I thought we had it all
But all we had
Were the ashes
Of a burned up bed
And what I thought was new
It was nothing more
Than a second-hand dream
Full of kings and whores
So I'm living in a lie
Of still loving you
But what the hell
I ain't got nothing better to do
I try to quit it
But I end up lost
I'm back in circles
Full of flesh and lust

And I've got you
Under my skin
My sweetness
When will you give in

To the wild in me

I've said too much
I call my bluff
That has nothing to do with you
You ask yourself
What can it be





Honey, why can't you see
The wild in me

Line by Line Meaning

I keep on writing love songs
I continue to write romantic music


Because you want me to
As you want me to


I write something dangerous
I'm creating something risky


About me and you
Concerning our involvement


I think this one
I believe this one


You won't want to hear
You will not fancy listening


It's about time I disappeared
It's time for me to vanish


And if you want to know
If you wish to find out


where I was last night
the place I was yesterday night


I went to a XXX show
I attended an adult entertainment show


And I got high last night
I got intoxicated last night


That's the bullshit
That's the nonsense


I make up these days
I'm inventing nowadays


I can't help myself
I'm powerless to control myself


I'm born this way
I'm naturally like this


And I've got you
And I have you


Under my skin
Embedded in me


My sweetness
My dear


When will you give in
When will you surrender


To the wild in me
To my untamed nature


I thought we had it all
I believed we had everything


But all we had
However, we only possessed


Were the ashes
Were the remnants


Of a burned up bed
Of a bay that we consumed entirely


And what I thought was new
And what I supposed was fresh


It was nothing more
It was merely


Than a second-hand dream
A dream that was not mine


Full of kings and whores
Full of dominant and submissive people


So I'm living in a lie
So I am in a delusion


Of still loving you
Of constantly adoring you


But what the hell
But what the heck


I ain't got nothing better to do
I have nothing else to do


I try to quit it
I endeavor to leave it behind


But I end up lost
But I become disoriented


I'm back in circles
I'm back to where I started


Full of flesh and lust
Full of corporeal desires and passions


I've said too much
I have spoken too much


I call my bluff
I confront my deception


That has nothing to do with you
That has no connection to you


You ask yourself
You wonder


What can it be
What it could mean


Honey, why can't you see
Sweetheart, why can't you comprehend


The wild in me
My wild side
