October spoke about this song on Instagram:
Wrote and produced this song by myself in my fkn bedroom (although have to give a shoutoutttt to @justnaro for designing the arpeggiated synths in the bridge, they too godly to not put in). I remember being pretty miserable making this song, feeling like...
[Verse 1]
It's gotten hold
Wrapping hands around your brain
It's getting old
The blue-dark shadows from the flames
They paint up the walls again
This flag of doubt
That's streaming high above your mind
Oh, if you'd only figured out
You might have been alright if you had any bit of doubt
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't judge your fear, lay your pain on me
[Chorus]
I want to feel up the body of desire
I want to kiss around the mouth of a dream, of a dream, of a dream, of a
I want to get lost in the eyes of lust, devour
But I thought it'd be better now
Yeah, I thought it'd be better by now
[Verse 2]
The bitter thoughts
Oh, how the nighttime it saved me
The endless dark
The quiet humming of our city, asleep as I like to think
The sorry dream
To live in someone else's head
Oh, if I'd known it's never what it seems
I might have been alright if I had any dignity
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't judge your fear, lay your pain on me
[Chorus]
I want to feel up the body of desire
I want to kiss around the mouth of a dream, of a dream, of a dream, of a
I want to get lost in the eyes of lust, devour
But I thought it'd be better now
Yeah, I thought it'd be better by now
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't judge your fear, lay your pain on me
[Chorus]
I want to feel up the body of desire
I want to kiss around the mouth of a dream, of a dream, of a dream, of a
I want to get lost in the eyes of lust, devour
But I thought it'd be better now
Yeah, I thought it'd be better by now
I want to feel up the body of desire
I want to kiss around the mouth of a dream, of a dream, of a dream, of a
I want to get lost in the eyes of lust, devour
But I thought it'd be better now
Yeah, I thought it'd be better by now
