With “The Great Undressing”, Hval is finally beginning to explicitly reveal her intentions for the album: to truly explore desire, which she’s essentially defining here as the impulse to have one’s affection returned by the object of said affection—for one’s desire to be reciprocated.

The Great Undressing Lyrics

[Spoken Intro: Annie Bielski and Zia Anger]
It's fruit with cake and like, cinnamon, it's very fruity and good
What's this album about, Jenny?
It's about vampires
No!
Yeah
What?
Well, it's about more things than that but, a large theme of it is—
That is so basic. "It's about vampires!"
It's about blood...

[Chorus]
Like capitalism
It works like unrequited love that way
It never rests
Just like I need the love I'm not getting from you
And all the people in the world
Are in-between you and I in that way
And in the way of love

[Verse 1]
You must be disgusted
But I need to keep writing because everything else is death
I'm self-sufficient, mad, endlessly producing
I don't need money, I just need your love
Or your approval, anything

[Chorus]
Like capitalism
It works like unrequited love that way
It never rests
Just like I need the love I'm not getting from you
And all the people in the world
Are in-between you and I in that way
And in the way of love

[Verse 2]
Any sign is a promise of love, of being exposed
A staged ritual undressing taking a place of consummation
I'm here writing, working, making myself
Available for love
Making myself available for love
Because I love you
Because I love you
Because I love you

[Spoken Outro]
I just need a sign
Any recognition is a reward
Because I love you
