Song Meaning of “Kill The Light” by Lacuna Coil
This song is a call to break down the darkness and find the light again. It speaks of pain and suffering that is brought on by a darkness that threatens to extinguish the light that we live in. It encourages the listener to take this strength and courage from within to break out of the darkness and embrace the power of the light that lies beyond.
The imagery used throughout invites us to remember that darkness is not the enemy, but instead an impetus for us to be better and stronger than we could have ever imagined. The reflective chorus describes a willingness to face the battles and tribulations of the dark, only to emerge on the other side a transformed person.
The song speaks of the power and beauty of the light, and being able to appreciate it so much more for having seen the darkness. It implores the listener to become a part of the change the world needs and to become a symbol for the transformation that is possible when one embraces the light, even when faced with the darkest of times.
