La Roux - In For The Kill Lyrics

We can fight our desires
Ouuhh but when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Ouuhh whether we like it or not.
They say we can love who we trust
Ouuhh but what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
Ouuhh and what are feelings without emotions?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand
(Repeat)

I had my hopes out on the line
Ouuhh will they be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
Ouuhh they’ll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
Ouuhh my words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Ouuhh can this bridge cross the ocean?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand
(Repeat)

Let’s go on to make me
Let’s be cool to creating
Up in darkness we can see
And you’re not blind from the light from me

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

    what a CRAP song!

    The lyrics don’t make any sense, the tune is shit, the singing atrocious!

    a crime against music!

    I love this song and I love La Roux. Songs don’t have to make sense, look at David Bowie! I like her voice it is different.
    Her style is really cool and I love the 80’s synths. Brilliant and I hope they win the mercury prize.

  9. Michaël Lessard Says:

    These are not the right lyrics: the last part (is not “Let’s go on to make me…”) but should read:

    Let’s go to wars to make peace
    Let’s be cold to creat heat
    I hope in darkness we can see
    And you’re not blinded by the light from me

    @emma Songs are not meant to read as rational poems or messages, songs are about the emotions and moods expressed. That song makes sense to me.

    About singing : Anyone who sings outside the shower knows she has talent and she has shown the resonance in her voice in many live shows. Anyhow, singers are not asked to be technicians but asked to convey emotion as far as I am concerned.

    And I appreciate that La Roux is not a star at heart, but more often a humble artist at heart.

    Cheers !
