Missilia Amori Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So you want out now
Don’t you love?
Was I not all you were dreaming of?
[Chorus]
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
Love rockets, excite me with your demise
[Verse 2]
Before my love has turned to hate
Before my love, it is too late
[Chorus]
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
Love rockets, excite me with your demise
[Refrain]
My missiles are aimed to launch at your heart
Give in or the war is on
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
[Bridge]
Wherever you may hide away
I’m gonna hunt you down
Wherever you may hide away
I’m gonna hunt you down
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
A man of faith is hard to find
You showed me yours, I’ll show you mine
[Chorus]
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
Love rockets, excite me with your demise
[Refrain]
My missiles are aimed to launch at your heart
Give in or the war is on
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
[Outro]
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
Love rockets, shot right in between your eyes
Summary of this Song Lyrics
_____________________________________
Ghost’s “Missilia Amori” song depict a dramatic and intense emotional transformation in a romantic relationship. The song begins with a sense of betrayal and disillusionment, as the narrator questions their partner’s love and wonders if they ever truly fulfilled the other’s desires. The recurring theme of “love rockets” symbolizes powerful, targeted emotions—initially representing passionate love but quickly turning into weapons of emotional vengeance.
As the song progresses, the tone becomes more confrontational and aggressive. The artist warns that if love isn’t reciprocated, it could turn into hate, suggesting the thin line between affection and resentment. The metaphor of launching missiles at the heart emphasizes emotional warfare, where love becomes a battlefield. The imagery of hunting someone down wherever they hide further reinforces the idea of obsession and the inability to let go.
Despite its aggressive tone, the song also touches on vulnerability and lost faith in love, especially in the line “A man of faith is hard to find.” Overall, “Love Rockets” captures the pain of rejection and the destructive power of love when it goes unreturned, using vivid metaphors to illustrate emotional turmoil and the intensity of romantic conflict.
