Smash Them All (Night Visitors) Lyrics

I have spent so many nights in your arms
so many nights I begged for demons to let go of me
I have spent so many nights in your bed
so many nights of lust
Like bonfires keeping them out
Those fools!

Maybe this spacecraft will take us to the moon
evil night visitors, they're now gone for good
'cause we smashed you all
as we took off

I have pictured you in my head
fighting your way through cobwebs,
vampires craving for food

demons tracking me down for so long
I wanna see their heads chopped,
hearts stabbed, and blood spilled for good
will you?

maybe this spacecraft will fly us to the moon
evil night visitors you can go to hell
'cause we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we smashed you all
we crushed you all
we smashed you all
as we took off

Cover art for Smash Them All (Night Visitors) lyrics by Dø, The

This song, to me, is obviously about a girl with a few "bugs in the attic" or in this case : demons & vampires. She has found a way to fend them off, from attacking her sanity or internal integrity by using the sacred means of lovemaking with a man who plays the savior and who takes on the brunt of the effect these demons have on her.

The act of lovemaking does indeed plunge one into bliss and most importantly, the present moment where "vampires & demons" have no hold. So of course she is fond of this method of escaping their grasp yet she doesn't realize that she cannot ask of another to forever help her "stab and chop their heads off". She must one day face them and take them head on (or off in this case)

I love the use of the metaphor of the spacecraft as "moksha" (spiritual liberation). Here is an excerpt of a text explaining the link between this song and tantra :

""In addition, practice of tantra is known for its magical techniques, which may be applied only taking into consideration many laws. A real practitioner of tantra uses them in extremely rare and very necessary cases, but any practitioner has to know the theory of these processes. This shat-karma (six magic rituals): shanti-karma which forming of peace and tranquility in the social environment, stambhana is the power of stopping or paralyzing others negative actions, uchchatana is the power of conjuring away lower spirits, vidveshana is the power of stirring up the hostility between two personalities and marana is the power of killing an enemy. However, a practitioner of tantra will never use such karma as marana or vidveshana, except as his relatives are threatened by violence and there is no alternative to stop asuric person. True practitioner of tantra knows the nature of these phenomena, but did not use them, because he has bhakti (devotion to divinities) and so is under the patronage of Ishtadeva. Therefore, the correct goal in tantra is, first of all, bhakti and God-realization. Divya-marga means purity of motivation, which is important both in yogic and tantric sadhanas.""
