Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She is benediction
She is addicted to thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with he
[Verse 2]
Here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taken over me?
[Verse 3]
I'm dancing barefoot
Headin' for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroin
[Verse 4]
She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee
She is concentrating on he
Chosen of she
[Verse 5]
Here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taken over me?
[Verse 6]
I'm dancing barefoot
Headin' for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroin
[Verse 7]
She is re-creation
She, intoxicated by thee
She has the slow sensation that he
Is levitating with she
[Verse 8]
Here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Till I lose my sense of gravity
[Verse 9]
I'm dancing barefoot
In me, there I spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroin
[Verse 10]
Oh, God, I fell for you
(The plot of our life sweats in the dark like a face)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(The mystery of childbirth, of childhood itself)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(Grave visitations)
(What is it that calls to us?)
(Why must we pray screaming?)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(Why must not death be redefined?)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(We shut our eyes)
(We stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(An asphyxiation, a fix on anything)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(The line of life the limb of a tree)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(The hands of he)
(And the promise that she is blessed)
Oh, God, I fell for you
(Among women)
